Anglandshøj ved Anglands Mose, en gammel bronzealder slagmark.

Anglandshøj at Anglands Bog, an old bronze age battle field.
Anglandshøj ved den gamle bronzealder slagmark.
I bronzealderen for omkring 3500 år siden, siger sagnet at Danmark blev angrebet af England. Det første slag stod ved Ramme Dige, hvor danskerne tabte og led store tab.
Efter nederlaget, blev resterne af den danske hær angrebet endnu engang og det kom igen til blodig kamp. Lykken vendte sig imidlertid for danskerne og angriberne blev slået ned til sidste mand. Dette slag stod længere inde i landet ved en stor mose der den dag idag kaldes for Anglands Mose eller Englands Mose.
Området øst for højen, ned igennem skoven og ud på de nærliggende marker, udgør idag resten af mosen og man siger at de små jordforhøjninger man kan finde, er englændernes grave...

Cachen er en del af multicachen "Oltidsvejen", GCGYE7, og indeholder logbog, blyanter, blyantspidser, en Sheriffstjerne, et 3.5mm stereo jackstik, noget kinesisk slik, en citron-vådserviet og en lille lyserød 'tingest' til håret.

Anglandshøj at the bronze age battle fields.
In the bronze age some 3500 years ago, according to the myths, Denmark was attacked by England. The first battle took place at the Dike of Ramme and the danes lost and suffered large losses.
After the defeat, the remainder of the danish army were again attacked and again it came to harsh battle. This time the danes prevailed, and the english attackers were slain down to the last man. The battle took place further east, at a place which even in the present time is called 'Anglands Mose' (Anglands Bog).
The area east of the grave mound is the remainder of the bog, and it is said that the small elevated dirt piles scattered over the forest base, is the graves of the fallen english soldiers.

The cache is a part of the multicache "Oltidsvejen", GCGYE7, and it contains: Logbook, pencils, pencilsharpener, a Sheriffs Star, a 3.5mm stereo jack plug, some chinese candy, a lemon refreshing tissue and a small pink 'hair thing'.

Angslandshoj 24 juli 2007

Dit grote bos kennen we van eerdere caches. De denen zetten meestal een infopaaltje bij bijzondere plekken. Hier stond niets dus er was er even twijfel of we wel goed zaten... Maar de cache was al snel gevonden. De regen werd ook heviger dus geen tijd om stil te staan bij de gebeurtenissen van een ver verleden en snel naar de auto om de terugreis naar Skalstrup te beginnen.

Found the cache in heavy rain. Therefore we had to write our log in the new book very quickly and had no time to find out more about this historical forest. But we will be back one time...

Thanks!

Makers: bedankt!
