About
The Haga dolmen, also known as Hagadösen, is a notable Neolithic burial structure located on Orust island in Bohuslän, Västra Götaland County, Sweden. This megalithic dolmen is characterized by its four upright stone slabs supporting a fifth slab as a roof, complemented by a threshold and stepping stone. Encircled by a small mound of earth and faint edge stones, it features the largest interior chamber in the province. Constructed around 3400 BCE, the dolmen is significant for its Neolithic origins. Archaeological excavations in 1915 uncovered artifacts such as an amber necklace, stone axe, flint knife, and slate jewelry, indicating its use during the late Neolithic period. Despite its modest size, the site offers valuable insights into funerary practices and material culture of the time.
