Stoplesteinan

Recently an information sign has been erected some 10 to 20 meters (30–60 feet) south-east of Stoplesteinan.

There are also stone settings with elliptical shape and sharp edges, thus resembling a ship.

[3][4] An excavation at Stoplesteinan during the 1930s found that the ground in the circle's center is paved with stones.

Traces of burnt material were also found, lending credence to the theory that it is located at a place of burial.

Snorre says in his 'Heimskringla' from the 13th century about Norwegian history that fyrsta öld er kölluð brunaöld; þá skyldi brenna alla dauða menn ok reisa eptir bautasteina (The first period is called the "burn age", since all dead men were burned and stone monuments raised for them).
