Gulbīšu sacrificial stone

State archaeological heritage (State Inspection for Heritage Protection, No 2382). On the even, slightly sloping surface of the Gulbīši Sacrificial Stone (length of 4.8 m, width of 2.8 m, height of 0.6 m) one can see an artificially made longish hollow (length of 1.3 m, width of 0.6 m, depth of 0.13 m), the sides of which have crumbled a little, because, as evidenced by archive material, in 1919 forest axemen burnt a large bonfire on the stone. The local people have been calling the stone the Sacrificial Stone or the Ancestors' Stone since ancient times. (Urtāns, 1993) Nearby is the Gulbīši Ancient Burial Ground, Ruķi Fir-Tree, Alksnīši Ancient Burial Ground. Located in the property of the Latvia's State Forests.
