Bruteigsteinen (Cup and Ring Marks / Rock Art) — Fieldnotes

Bruteigsteinen is a large rock covered with petroglyphs. Dating of petroglyphs is difficult, 1300-500BCE (bronze-age) has been suggested for this stone. It is close to the farmbuildings of the Flåte farm. There is a parkingspace 200 meters before you reach the houses on the farm, go through the gate and follow the path along the stream (uphill) The first time the returning winter-sun reaches above the Flåte-skaret it shines on the stone.
