Rock Carvings of Boglösa

The Rock carvings of Boglösa in the province of Uppland in central Sweden are located to the southeast of Enköping [1]. The three petroglyphs (Swedish: Hällristningar) form part of a complex of rock art [1]. They derive from the Swedish Bronze Age (c.1500-500 BC) and the Iron Age [1]. Among the Hällristningar, which depict ships, the 4.13 m long and 0.6 m high Brandskogsskeppet stands out [1]. The unparalleled, naturalistically depicted, compact hull is decorated at the ends with the heads of moose [1]. The crew consists of six rowers [1]. This image is dated to the beginning of the Iron Age [1].
