Suur-Pirkkala Burial Mounds
Suur-Pirkkala Burial Mounds are ancient, man-made earthworks located in Finland, dating back to around 1500-500 BCE. These mounds served as burial sites for community elites or important individuals during the Bronze and early Iron Ages. Constructed with careful planning, they often contain graves, artifacts, and sometimes small stone structures. These sites offer valuable insights into early Finnish culture, social hierarchy, and ritual practices. Today, the burial mounds are important archaeological landmarks that help researchers understand prehistoric societies and their customs.
