When it was built about 5000 years ago, this passage grave in Bohuslän, Sweden was beside the sea, then 25m higher than it is today. It was intended for repeated burials. In some barrows the remains of up to a hundred people have been found. This grave is badly damaged and the covering back slopes into the grave, hence the name in local dialect of 'Ludesten' or sloping stone.
