Stenåldersbosättning/Stone age settlement

Tidigare har vi bara passerat skylten som pekar mot stenåldersbosättningen men nu var det dags att ta en titt (se inlägg 11 nov 2017).

På stenåldern var de högsta bergen i Älvsjöskogen öar i havet och här fanns då många bra naturhamnar. På just denna plats har man hittat sten som bearbetats av människor, vilket visar att det bott folk här. De försörjde sig troligen bl a genom att jaga säl. Man tror att denna boplats är ca 8000 år gammal.

In the past we have just passed the sign pointing to the stone age settlement but now it was time to take a look (see entry Nov 11, 2017)

During the stone age the highest mountains in Älvsjöskogen were islands in the sea and there were many good natural ports. In this very place, stone has been found that has been processed by people which shows that people lived here. They probably supported themselves by chasing seals. It is believed that this settlement is about 8000 years old.
