Several sites and places have been used over and over again in different time periods of prehistory. Such repeatedly used sites are known everywhere and Estonia is not an exception. Sometimes a site was re-used for the same purpose at different times, i.e. for dwelling or burials, sometimes the use of a site changed completely. A stone grave might have been established on top of an earlier settlement site, an earlier field was later turned into a settlement site, or a stone grave was erected on it. Why were some sites used repeatedly? How were these sites remembered? It seems that a site was repeatedly used for living if the natural conditions were favourable. Stone graves were erected to places that shared some common natural features, something that made these sites different from the ordinary. But a site could also be used as a memory aid, helping people to remember. (Hi)stories and narratives connected with places helped people to create their identity and gave them a sense of belonging.
