Ales Stenar. Boy.

The boy, as boy's do, did try to climb on the stones, or ...did push against some. I left the place, one never knows what happens.

    Ale's Stones
    From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia


    Ale's Stones at Kåseberga, around ten kilometres southeast of Ystad.
    Ale's Stones (or Ales stenar in Swedish) is a megalithic monument in Scania in southern Sweden. It consists of a stone ship 67 meters long formed by 59 large boulders of sandstone, weighing up to 1.8 tonnes each. According to Scanian folklore, a legendary king called King Ale lies buried there.
    The carbon-14 dating system for organic remains has provided seven results at the site. One indicates that the material is around 5,500 years old whereas the remaining six indicate a date about 1,400 years ago. The latter is considered to be the most likely time for Ales Stenar to have been created. That would place its creation towards the end of the Nordic Iron Age.[1
