Bildtext: "Offerställe (Offer, Korss-kummel) på Sikevarps udde, i Bredsäters socken, Kalmar län. 1634.." Ur boken: "På Sikevarps udde, i Bredsäters socken af Kalmar län, fanns således ännu år 1634 ett öppet offerställe, som i folkmålet fick namn af Korss-kummel eller Offer. Det bildade, enligt Rhezelii ritning och beskrifning, en låg rundel eller ringmur, om 13 stegs (vid pass 39 fots) tvärmått, med in- och utgångs-öppningar i norr och söder. Midt i rundelen stod ett 11 fot högt stenkorss, hvari fanns ett hål, der fordom varit fästad en stålväska eller bössa, i hvilken sjöfarande haft för sed, att offra till de armas behof, sedan de inom ringmuren »hållit sina böner till Gud om välfärd, och hvarannan önskat vind och godan bör i Jesu namn och hamn i samma namn»."
