The article looks into the grammar of cultural memory as manifested in the patterns of a landscape cosmology and represented
in the types and variations of ancient monuments situated on a protuberant mountain ridge in the agrarian landscape of Jæren,
Southwest Norway. Regarding the prominence of place, with reference to the natural environment, landscape use, and settlement
history on a long-term scale, and based on cultural heritage information from surveys and maps from the beginning and middle
of 20th century, the location, distribution and context of monuments in the landscape are considered and their social, economic,
political and religious functions discussed in relation to archaeological finds, local history, and folklore.
