In the region of Moss, Norway, there are 83 registered archaeological heritages before 1537. These are automatically protected and subject to Cultural Heritage by the curator in Østfold County. Stone Age settlements, burial mounds from the Bronze Age, caves and rock carvings, traces from the Viking age.

Near Gjerrebogen in Moss, Norway, beneath an overhanging rock wall called "Heller", I could observe the only Stone Age settlement to have been found on the mainland part of Moss. It`s from the latter half of the Late Stone Age.

Behind the big white house we could observe the ruins of the Vaerne Monestary, Værne kloster, Rygge, Moss, in Norway. The monastery is located in a big green garden with tall oak trees and beautiful avenues. In November previous year it was reported a sensational archeological discovery on the site near the mentioned ruins: a stone building, about fifty meters long, was found underground. It lies west of the main building on Vaerne. Is it really a Knights Hospitaller monastery that has been found there?

First and foremost my aim for the tour in April 2002 was to explore Stonehenge outside London. I also visited the beautiful Georgian City of Bath and admired some of the most amazing architectural sights in Europe, including Bath Abbey, the Royal Crescent, the Circus, Assembly Rooms and the Pulteney Bridge. The most amazing of all in the City of Bath was exploring the Roman Baths, built around thermal springs, which have been supplying water for over 2,000 years.

Marco Polo travelled around in China for 17 years. Is it possible that he didn`t observe the Great Wal of China, or even hear about it, in this period? Or did`t he go to China at all? Maybe Marco Polo had some good reasons for not telling the world about one of the most impressing human made wonders in the world.

By observing the ruins of Carthage in Tunis, it reminded me that no superpower lasts forever. It goes up and down in the world, and so it went for the people in Carthage.

This year the focus should be on the wilds of the Norwegian countryside. With its dazzling Nordic light and dramatic landscape, Norway is perhaps the most unexplored and exotic corner of Europe.

The Viking graveyard in the village of Rygge, about 15 minutes` drive from Moss, was until recently overgrown with weeds and trees. It`s now surrounded by evergreen large fields, trees and bushes. I can clearly observe strange stones placed in a circle, but what is hiding underground?
