3,000 years ago, the ashes of the dead were buried after cremation at the Busjop Burial Field. The ashes were then placed in an urn or cloth, and the whole area was covered with a low mound of sods.
Each individual received his or her own burial monument. By repeatedly creating a new mound near another, a vast burial or urn field was created. Over the course of five centuries, a "death landscape" of more than fifty burial mounds developed here.
