[Stones] Gotland

[Ric]

Fascinating!
   
  Questions:
   
  Stone Circle at Trullhalsar (Anga) – this looks like a stone circle with a single stone at its centre?
   
   
  the Trojaborg (labyrinth) at Fröjel: how old is this please? 
   
  I know nothing factual about prehistoric(?) labyrinths – there is supposed to be a ‘maze’ near to Avebury, but what form it takes I have no idea? I might be mistaken though – I keep seeing a roadside sign advertising a maze north of Avebury?
   
  (or are these directions to the M4?)
   
  lol
   
  Thanks Vidar!

Hi all

I've been lurking on this list for a few months and enjoyed it so far.

As you can guess from my mail-adress I'm norwegian and live on the small
island Veierland, in Vestfold county in Norway. Vestfold is on the western
side of the Oslofjord, which means that there are some sites of interest to
this list close by where I live. As a matter of fact there are two
bronze-age burials a couple of hundred meters from our house, admittedly
small but still :) 

The ship-setting/stone-circle Istrehågan is probably the bestknown site,
but there are a few more in the area. 

But as you all probably know, the stones are always bigger elsewhere. In
october we spent some days on the swedish island Gotland visiting mainly
ship-settings. I've made a blogg with some pictures here:

It was my first go at a blog, so you'll have to start at the bottom to
follow the chronology of the thing ...
