Flesh and bone

The ancient burial mounds and a village graveyard dating back to the Middle Ages located near Kaagjärve Lake in Karula parish, Valga county, were plundered in the summer of 2012. The central area of the burial mound was completely torn up by the excavator and the bronze jewellery findings from the ground were collected with the metal detector. A crime has been commited. The ancient graveyard has been destroyed, bones are scattered around, and plenty of valuables have been stolen from the ground. The locals say that they know nothing about what has happened. The sacred ancient Niklusmägi gathers around it crime, science, souls of the dead and local destinies.
