We've been on the trail of these prehistoric marvels through Drenthe province, which is a bit of a hunnebed hotspot. They are unassumingly situated next to corn fields and in woods and range in size from the simple bedsit variety to the extended family commune variety.
They raised more questions than they answered (how? why? where from??) but we now gather that they are graves constructed circa Stonehenge from rocks deposited (maybe from Scandinavia) during the last ice age.

Hi there TC - how's everything in Canberra? Are you still being a teacher as well as a student? I also took photos for you from the new apartment in Arnhem, so I can give you an 'e-walkthrough' when we get home. See you soon!! M x
