    Tips

    October 7, 2024

    Last vestige of a Neolithic tumulus, built 5 to 6,000 years ago in the Boixe forest.

    A 15t stone, placed directly on the ground, constitutes the last half of the cover table of a dolmen integrated into the tumulus.

    It is called the "sacrifice" stone because of the transverse groove on its visible face, but this mark would more likely be the work of the quarrymen, in order to cut it before moving it.
