Nebel - Makkanhugh (Round Barrow(s)) — Fieldnotes |
|
Between Nebel and Norddorf there are still three burial mounds: Klöwenhugh, Kanshugh and Makkanhugh. From these three Makkanhugh is the most ruined barrow. One can only guess its outlines, in a depression in the middle of the mound a single stone still peeks out. Unfortunately I couldn't find any information about archaeological findings or excavation on this burial mound. From Nebel take the road Waasterstigh (mainly used as a cycle path to Norddorf), pass the cemetery on the right and turn right after about 350 m into Lütt-Elks-Weg. After another 270 m, turn left and follow this track. Makkanhugh lies in the field on the left after about 210 m. Visited November 2019 |

Steenodde - Esenhugh (Round Barrow(s)) — Fieldnotes |
|
300 m west of Steenodde lies the largest Bronze Age burial mound of the island of Amrum. Esenhugh is abound 4.7 m high and has a diameter of 26.5 m. The dolmen of Steenodde lies about 420 m to the south. A viking burial ground with formerly 88 burial mounds lies close by. To get to the burial mound drive of the road Stianoodswai towards Steenodde. At the point where the first property is located on the right, a narrow dirt road turns left at an archaeological information sign. Esenhugh lies 170 m along this dirt road on the left.
