Parks & Nature
HUMAN IMPACT TO THE LANDSCAPE
Due to extensive forest clear cuttings, especially after the Seven-Year War (1756-1763), wind erosion appeared. Wind reshaped old parabolic dunes, forming new relief. The Great Dune Ridge started to grow. It buried 14 villages under the thick layer of sand: Naumiestis, Priedinis, Senieji and Naujieji Nagliai, Karvaiciai, Senieji Kuncai, Naujoji Pilkopa, Senoji Nida and others. The sand threatened humans, so they started looking for ways to tame it. At the beginning they were building wooden barriers, which helped very little.
