Grime's Graves is a large Neolithic flint mining complex in Norfolk, England. It lies 8 km (5.0 mi) north east from Brandon, Suffolk in the East of England. It was worked between c. 2600 and c. 2300 BC, although production may have continued well into the Bronze and Iron Ages (and later) owing to the low cost of flint compared with metals. Flint was much in demand for making polished stone axes in the Neolithic period. Much later, when flint had been replaced by metal tools, flint nodules were in demand for other uses, such as for building and as strikers for muskets.

  • Grimes Graves är ett område med flintgruvor i Norfolk, England. Brytningen pågick under yngre stenåldern från cirka 2 500-1 700 f.Kr. Området omfattar ett cirka fjorton hektar stort område, med fler än 360 schakt, av vilka somliga går tolv meter djupt in i kalklagren. Flintan användes främst för tillverkning av flintyxor. Idag förvaltas området av den brittiska statliga myndigheten English Heritage och är öppet för besökare. (sv)

  • Граймс-Грейвс (Grimes Graves) — крупное скопление древних шахт в Европе. Расположено около Брандона (Норфолк). В Граймс-Грейвсе находится около 250 кремнёвых шахт, они занимают около 37 гектаров. Они представляют собой воронковидные ямы до 12-13 м глубиной. Шахты проходят через кремнёвые слои и от них в стороны отходят штольни. В кремнёвых копях в Граймс-Грейвс найдены орудия труда — молоты, топоры, кирки из камня и рога оленя. Аналоги данной шахты обнаружены на территории Великобритании — в , где также добывался кремень. Граймс-Грейвс примерно переводится как «чёртовы могилы». (ru)
