    This menhir was installed in the Neolithic period (3000 BC) in the dry area. It would be 8.5 meters high, part of which is in the water. Indeed, following the rise in water levels since the Neolithic period, a marsh was formed at this location and the menhir is located in this wetland.

    The base of the 6.5-meter-high menhir is below the mean tidal flood and is evidence of the rise in sea level since the Neolithic (Wikipedia)

    The Lehan menhir rose 4 metres above the water level

    It's impressive that it remained standing and was not used as building material.
