In the North Limburg municipality of Hamont-Achel in Belgium, there are two cemeteries in the forest area between the villages of Achel and Hamont.
The oldest are the Bronze Age burial mounds of Haarterheide on Boskerkhofweg, which date from between 1800 and 800 BC (Bronze Age). There were 4 burial mounds, 3 of which were reconstructed with a garland of posts. There are burial mounds with several graves. A burial mound was erected in front of one grave, where additional graves were added afterwards. Often they were used for hundreds of years.
