Graphical reconstruction of stone walls as hunting structures in glacial landscapes
Michał Grabowski
A low stone wall approximately one kilometer long has been discovered 21 meters below the surface of the Baltic Sea off the coast of Germany. The wall is thought to have been built around 11,000 years ago to guide reindeer into easy-to-kill areas, and could be the largest Stone Age monument in Europe.
The discovery happened by chance. Students training with geophysicists in 2021 Jacob Giesen Researchers at Germany's Leibniz Institute for Baltic Sea Research Warnemünde used multibeam sonar to map the ocean floor 10 kilometers offshore from the town of Relic.
