Björnlandet - kulturhistoriska lämningar - Sevärt

Remains of a fire pallet hut on the hill north of the dam across Björkbäcken. In the middle of the foundation are the remains of a fire pallet 2x1 m and 0.5 m h of natural stone, sand and timber. The interpretation that the dam embankment was used for rafting purposes is debatable, writes Gudrun Norstedt in her cultural-historical analysis of Björnlandet National Park. An alternative interpretation is that the dam was built to create a pond meadow to improve the hay harvest. The historical maps point in this direction, writes Norstedt.
