Fifteen miles east of Ystad on the eastern edge of Sweden lies the village of Kaseberga. Just outside of town you'll find a footpath leading to a hill above the sea, on top of which lies an arrangement of stones. The shape is that of an imaginary boat some 250 feet in length. Still a puzzle to archeologists, the stones date to the 5th Century.

Nice to see a bird's eye view of the stones. How did you take this photo?
