Fieldnotes
| The name Greby gave the nearby village Grebbestad its name. The first part, Gre, comes from the norse word grjot, which means 'stony ground'. Around 200 elliptic and circular mounds are found here, many of them with with an erected stone at the top, others with a chain of smaller stones around the edges. 10 graves have been examined, and it has been concluded that the field was built around 200-600 CE There is infoboards on site in Swedish, English and German. How to get there: Take off highway E6 and turn into the town of Tanumshede. When there, turn right onto road 163, towards Grebbestad. After about 5,4 kilometres (about 1 kilometre before Grebbestad) you'll find a parking spot to your left. Park there and walk on the gravel road for 250 metres. The site can be seen in GE |
