- Cover photo description:
- D53 is the second largest hunebed in Holland and one with a remarkable history. In and under the floor of the burial chamber, researchers found potsherds of 665 pieces of pottery, 3 stone axes, an arrow-point, a bludgeon, and 4 amber beads. The German Army that occupied Holland during the Second World War demanded this megalithic monument to be dismantled for the construction of an airfield, but the Dutch authorities had taken their precautions: all 50 big and smaller boulders were pushed into a 6 meter deep pit in the ground by a shovel. Immediately after the war the stones were dug up again and in 1949 the restoration started.
