Folklore

Kintraw
Standing Stone / Menhir

The Kintraw Standing Stone, located near Loch Craignish in Argyll, Scotland, is traditionally said to be the burial place of a Norse prince, and is known as the “Danish King’s Grave”. While this is a popular local folklore, archaeological evidence suggests it may have also served as a marker for astronomical observations or a ritual site.
