Lauterhofen lies northwest of Regensburg in Germany. A necropolis dating to the second half of the 7th and the first half of the 8th centuries is situated here. The area of the cemetery is organized such that the place of burial could symbolize the gender, age and social status of the deceased. The measuring system of the necropolis corresponds with religious and astronomical foundations and furthermore, it repeats itself in the topography of the mythical surrounding landscape.

The cross of Krkavče also certainly came into existence at the same time. This time thus represents the terminus ante quem for the discussed Stone. Kamen Danes stoji 400 metrov jugovzhodno od krkavškega pokopališča, severno ob poti, ki vodi mimo ledine Gradišče proti zaselku Škrljevac (Slika 1). Visok je približno 2,5 m,
