Rieskaronmäki, Stone grave and archaeological site in Nakkila, Finland
The Rieskaronmäki site contains 11 stone cairns and three building foundations spread across two hilltops in a forested area near the coast.
The settlement dates back to 800-600 BCE during the Late Bronze Age period V, when the area was situated on a peninsula extending into ancient Panelia Bay.
The excavations revealed evidence of cattle farming and permanent settlement, marking the first documented farmstead from Bronze Age Finland.
The main longhouse measured 16.8 meters in length and 8.2 meters in width, with additional structures including a nearly square eastern building.
The site yielded the earliest evidence of horses in Finland through a bone fragment carbon-dated to 2,550-2,850 years ago.
