About Balloërkuil

Historic, Archaeology, Interesting Places, Other Archaeological Sites

De Balloërkuil is een stuifzandlaagte op de grens van de marken Balloo en Rolde. De Balloërkuil werd vroeger Ballerkuul genoemd.

Volgens overlevering werd de kuil in de Germaanse tijd gebruikt voor rechtspraak en was de Balloërkuil ook de plaats waar vroeger de Etstoel van Drenthe bijeen kwam.

Het landrecht van Drenthe van 1412 noemt de kuil echter niet, alleen de plaatsnaam Banlo. Geschiedschrijver Johan Picardt omschrijft de plek in 1660 als 'een kuil, oudtijds in het bos gelegen, ooit gebruikt als vergaderplaats, omgeven door van aarde gemaakte zitplaatsen'. Het was toen al een plek waar boeren kadavers van hun vee dumpten.
