Prehistoric grave Calden 1
Prehistoric grave Calden 1

This megalith chamber is the rest of a grave having 10.5m x 2m x 0.75m inner dimensions. A smaller entry chamber had a length of 1.25m minimum. Skeletons of 40 persons could be counted.

These extended dolmens consist of at least two jochens, that is, zwo wall stones plus one cap stone. At the end of the grave chamber, a stone closed the chamber. These graves were used for more than one burial, and could be accessed from a larger gap on one end.
