  • 4. Greby Gravfalt Grebbestad
    The Greby grave field is an Iron Age grave field in western Sweden. It is located north of Grebbestad, Tanum Municipality in Västra Götaland County. With its over 180 graves, it is the largest site of this kind in Bohuslän.According to legends, Greby is the resting place of the Scottish warriors who once pillaged Tanum. However, in June 1873, Swedish archaeologist Oscar Montelius examined eleven of the graves and did not find any weapons, only glass pearls, bone combs and other everyday objects, some of the items suggesting connections to Norway, England and Germany. Newer findings indicate that Greby might have been an ancient trading site.
