Summary[edit]

Description
Українська: Всього відомі знахідки трьох подібних дубів з вмонтованими щелепами свиней. Всі вони знайдені в руслі Десни. Розмір дерев був досить великим, а їх вік досягав 150-200 років. Висота, на якій були розташовані щелепи, становила біля 10 м. Для того, щоб вставити щелепи, в стовбурі видовбували долотом отвір, вставляли щелепу і забивали дерев’яний чіпок, який утримував її на місці. В подальшому щелепа вростала в стовбур.
English: Only known finds of three similar oaks with built-in mandibles of pigs. All of them were found in the Desna riverbed. The size of the trees was quite large, and their age reached 150-200 years. The height at which the mandibles were placed was about 10 m. Later, the mandibles grew into the trunk.
