Publisher's Synopsis

This book, published in 1804, is a pioneering study of the megalithic tombs in the northern Netherlands, known as 'hunebedden', and their cultural and historical significance. Its authors, Nicolaus Westendorp and Petrus Hofstede, argue that these prehistoric monuments were built by the indigenous population, possibly related to the Celts, during the Bronze Age, and that their symbolism reflects a complex worldview blending cosmology, mythology, and funerary practices.
