Visited some of my wife’s family in Västerås, Sweden, this week, which gave us a chance to visit the largest burial mound in the country with her cousins. Stones stand in circles, a rune stone stands by the highway, and a number of tumuli — including one especially large one — dot the landscape.

A person walks through a grassy field surrounded by a large, elongated stone circle formation amidst a backdrop of trees.A tall stone with intricate carvings, including a pattern and runic inscriptions, stands in a grassy field under a clear blue sky.Purple flowers and grass are surrounded by lush greenery, with a bee visible on one of the flowers.A road sign displays the name "Anundshög" beneath a symbol resembling a looped square or St. John's Arms on a blue background, set in a grassy area with houses and a car in the distance.
