Just south of the towns of Degerhamn and Södra Möckleby and next to the main road is a 3 metre tall standing stone. The stone is made from a large slab of red limestone - commonly found all over the island of Öland. However, the most noticeable part is the west facing side, which is covered in orthoceras fossils - an extinct type of squid from the Middle Ordovician period.
