Location of the Nydamsdyssen |
The Nydamsdysse of Bøjden (also called Nydamsgård or Bøjgden Nydamsdysse) are located south of Bøjden Nor in Horne Land on the Danish island of Funen . The dolmens ( Danish Dysser ) are megalithic structures of the funnel cup culture (TBK), which existed between 3500 and 2800 BC. BC originated.
In the north-east-south-west, about 1.5 m high and still about 25.0 × 7.8 m in size, of the 39 preserved curbs, 20 are in situ, there are two transverse dolmens.
Approximately in the middle of the megalithic bed, which has not been preserved in the north-eastern part, is the chamber of an ancient dolmen consisting of three supporting stones and the capstone, which is split into three parts, one part of which lies shifted on the megalithic bed. At the north-eastern end there is another Urdolmen with two supporting stones per long side (one is tilted) and one end or threshold stone each; the capstone is missing.
Nearby are the Bøjden Salmager stone box and the Bøjden Dyssekammer .
