Research and Investigations

Milhostovský kopec Stone Row

An investigation is mentioned concerning a stone row located on Milhostovský kopec (Milhostov Hill) in the Cheb district. A link to further details is provided, and visitors to the site are encouraged to document and photograph their findings. The coordinates are given as 50°10'22.990"N, 12°27'24.378"E.

'Ziegenrück' Stone Mounds

An article from 'Zlatá Praha' (Golden Prague), issue 21, dated November 1, 1864, is cited regarding a location in the Sokolov district. On a forest-covered hill named 'Ziegenrück' (Goat's Back), west of Loket and towards Slavkov, there are described over 30 round stone mounds, each measuring about four fathoms in diameter and one and a half fathoms in height. These are tentatively identified as possible burial mounds ('mohyly'). The text suggests these mounds might be located on the hill 'U Lovčí komory' (Near the Gamekeeper's Chamber) with GPS coordinates 50°10'57.198"N, 12°46'33.201"E, or on a hill called 'Zelenáč' with GPS coordinates 50°10'21.970"N, 12°47'27.677"E. The distance between these two points is approximately 1.5 km. Readers familiar with the location or who explore it are invited to share their findings.
