Sweden - Tjärby, Örelids Stenar
Örelids Stenar (or Örelids gravfält) is dating back to the Bronze Age and Early Iron Age. People of the village of Örelid buried their dead in this grave field. There are 36 standing stones from the Iron Age and four mounds from the Bronze Age. One of the mounds was examined in 1930; the archeologists found a bronze dagger and double buttons.
Behind the church in Tjärby, Örelids Stenar stands out against the horizon, situated on a beach embankment from the final stage of the Ice Age. In the 1830s there were more than 100 standing stones in the grave field. In 1971 many fallen stones were re-erected.
