Ale's Stones - Stone ship in Sweden
Ales stenar (English "Ale's Stones") is a so-called stone ship near the town of Kåseberga in the Swedish municipality of Ystad. At 67 meters long and 19 meters wide, this construction is one of the largest preserved ship settings in Scandinavia.
59 sandstones up to 3 meters high were placed here in the shape of a ship on a hill about 37 meters high around the 6th century AD. An urn containing fragments of burned human bones and charcoal was found in the complex.
