#hundorp

Burial mound in Hundorp, Sør-Fron, Gudbrandsdalen, Norway, from ca. 600-800 CE, painted by Auguste Mayer in 1838, when its name was Langjordshaugen. It is not known who or what is buried there. It got its current name, Olavshaugen (Olav's mound), on St. Olav's feast day, the 29th of July 1907, when a tall granite stone was put there, as "a symbol of Christianity replacing the old religion".
