Askeberga stone ship, Stone ship archaeological site near Tidan, Sweden.

Askeberga stone ship, also called Rane stenar, is a setting of 24 stone blocks up to 2 metres high, arranged in a 54-metre-long oval on a low earth platform. It lacks the pointed end stones usual for stone ships, so it resembles a longhouse. The largest block is 2 metres tall and nearly triangular in plan.

The dating is uncertain; the structure is probably from the late Iron Age, and the German article places it around 400–500 CE. An excavation in 1920 found no grave. Because the ends lack heavy prow stones, some have suggested the setting served as a hall for Odin cults rather than a burial.

The name Rane stenar links the site to Randens hög, a burial mound a few kilometres to the southwest said to be King Rane's. On the way there you pass Odenslunda, and old documents call the nearby lake Östen "Odins sjö". Snorri and the skald Brage Broddarsson wrote of "Odins land", which some place here.

The stone ship lies in Askeberga, west of Tidan and about 25 km north of Skövde in Västergötland. Drivers reach it from road 200 toward Tidan, then continue a few kilometres to Askeberga, where the setting stands beside the church with a small car park nearby. The stones stand on open ground and can be walked around at any time of year.

The 1920 excavation found no grave beneath the stones, and the ship has no heavy prow stones at either end, so it resembles a longhouse. Some link it to Odin: a few kilometres southwest lies Randens hög, King Rane's mound, and old documents call nearby lake Östen "Odins sjö".
