This is Li gravfält - a burial site from the 9th and 10th century AD. It's very close to the Kattegat, so of course I expected lots of Viking Age finds. Over a hundred standing stones (up to 5 m tall!) and some ship stone settings have been placed here. They are not marked and only few graves have been researched, so we don't know for whom they were placed. There are even some older findings, of ancient roads and settlements. A remarkable place, surrounded by nice hiking trails - recommended if you are in Southern Sweden!
