German term or phrase: Trichterbecherkultur
This term comes up in a text dealing with megaliths in the Ahlhorner Heide (south of Oldenburg in north Germany).

Die Denkmäler wurden während der Steinzeit errichtet, bis 2000 v. Chr., und sind die vielleicht berühmtesten Großsteingräber ("Megalithen") Deutschlands.

Sie gehören zur "Trichterbecherkultur" der ersten Ackerbauern und Viehzüchter Nordwestdeutschlands.
