Gröthögarna – eight burial mounds from the Bronze Age. Bild 14676 Along the west and south coasts of the Bjäre peninsula, there are over 40 burial mounds of varying sizes. The most imposing ones, called “Gröthögarna” , you find on the Ingelstorp shoreside. Their name comes from the word “gryt” meaning “stone heap”. The mounds or barrows were employed for the interment of several persons throughout the Bronze Age and probably also during the early Iron Age. They were built of stones from the rubble stone fields in this area. The stones belong to the species of rock known as quartzite, converted sandstone. In them you can see fossils in the form of petrified passages once made by lugworms. These lugworms lived in a sea which used to exist here about 600 million years ago. The coastline we see today is not very different from the one seen by Bronze Age people: these days the land along the Bjäre peninsula hardly rises at all. We can, however, detect traces of what were once beaches along a sea called the Littorina Sea, which existed here 6000 – 3000 B.C. The different levels of the Littorina Sea created long, parallel systems of banks with rubble stones. At its highest level, the Littorina Sea stood about 14 meters above the present sea level. Along the banks in the adjacent fields many objects from the agrarian Stone Age have been discovered, proving that the area was used by human beings even then.
