    In the open area southwest of Eext this special grave can be found. It was examined in 1756 and is still packed in its mound.

      This hunebed is one of the most special in Drenthe. Its discovery dates back to about 1735 and the first excavation took place in 1756. At that time a small stone staircase served as an entrance, which is why archaeologists also call it the 'step grave of Eext'. The hunebed is still partly under a large hill. The large flat capstone on top was found during work in the village of Eext and was not placed on the grave until 1976.

        D13 was drawn exactly at the excavation of 1756. The environment has changed completely, but the stones of the grave are still recognizable today.
