Kingsbarrow Gate

Kingsbarrow Gate This circle of tall standing stones is missing a single stone at its eastern point; nothing indicates that a stone ever stood there. Two pairs of stones each have another stone over the top like a lintel, one at the north point of the circle and one at the south. Each of the lintel stones is elaborately carved, although the two sets of carvings are very different; some of the symbols on each seem to represent animals while others are more abstract. Nearby to the east is a small hill or mound that rumor says was the burial place of the rulers of the Kingdom of Ka’dufaar, although it seems rather small to hold the bodies of nearly 800 years of kings. Supposedly, a king would be buried in the mound and then his spirit would go through the gate provided by the standing stones to reach the afterlife.
