NOTE

1. To place this marker I used http://defc.digital-humanities.at/publicrecords/site/detail/525 which provides a lat/lon pair. I then checked the elevation profile in Google Earth Pro to validate that there is a mound (which there is, elev. about 4 m. above the surrounding plain) in this heavily cultivated location.
