I have named it Kurgan, instead of mound or barrow as it is obviously in the same tradition as the other kurgans of the Bronze Age.--Wiglaf 10:09, 12 August 2005 (UTC)

Obviously? I would like a source for giving it the name kurgan, or even listing at as part of the same culture. Or is "obviously" just another word for user:Wiglaf's original research? /Pieter Kuiper 07:08, 2 October 2007 (UTC)

Kurgan is not a word associated with Scandinavian bronze age mounds, atleast not in scandinavia where the only word used for them is "hög" (mound). —Preceding unsigned comment added by 192.89.97.1 (talk) 13:37, 7 December 2007 (UTC)
