Langdysser in the Granskoven
The Langdysser in Granskoven 1 + 2 are located in the Granskoven (forest) south of the hamlet Ny Nyby in Bregninge on the island of Tåsinge in the Syddanmark region in Denmark. The dolmen date from the Neolithic around 3500–2800 BC. And are megalithic systems of the funnel beaker culture (TBK).
The north-east-southwest oriented Langdysse 1 No. 4117: 23 ( 55 ° 1 ′ 42 ″ N, 10 ° 36 ′ 55 ″ E ) is a continuation of Long Hill 2 No. 4117: 24 ( 55 ° 1 ′ 45 ″ N, 10 ° 37 ′ 0 ″ E ) and probably belonged to it, so that they originally formed a common long dyssey.
At the north end of Long Hill 1 there is a deep pit, on the east side of which two large, lying stones may have exceeded the edge. At the south end, the tops of five large rocks of a polygonal chamber with an inner diameter of at least 2.0 m and the (unrecognizable) opening to the east can be seen.
At the northwest corner of the 2.0 m high, 33.0 m long and 16.0 m wide long hill 2 there are four very large curb stones. Two others (still registered in 1976) appear to have been removed. At the south end of the hill is about a 4.0 x 1.8 m measured passage grave chamber . A total of eight bearing stones can be seen; The north end has not been preserved. A stone-free corridor hollow in the east is 4.0 to 5.0 m long. To the north of the chamber is a larger, trough-shaped, approximately 0.5 m deep pit in the hill, possibly the site of another chamber.
