Karleby
If you're heading northwards on the road
through Karleby, you'll see these Stone Age graves on your left hand side.... (not K 127)
Some of them are placed in a straight line.

These passage graves
are bigger than the average ones in Sweden ( one of them is the
biggest one in Scandinavia.... ) - due to competition among neighbours
? |

Excavations have shown
that the Stone Age people lived on the right side of the road, while
they buried their dead on the left side - just like today ! The
church and the churchyard are placed about 250 metres south of passage
grave 132. |

So this may be one of the oldest roads
in the world, that is still in use....
