The King's Grave near Kivik in the south-eastern portion of the Swedish province of Skåne is what remains of an unusually sumptuous Nordic Bronze Age burial ca 1000 BC. In spite of the fact that it has been used both as a quarry and carelessly restored, it is a unique burial. In both construction and in size (measuring 75 meters across) it deviates from most European burials from the Bronze Age, and the cist is adorned with petroglyphs. The images depict people, ships, lurs, symbols, and a chariot with two horses. It is located ca 320 meters from the shore.
