Ponta Delgada submitted by Alta-Falisa : Modern monoliths in Ponta Delgada, capital of the Azores Islands (Região Autónoma dos Açores / Autonomous Region of the Azores). Photo : March 2013. (Vote or comment on this photo)
Modern Stone Circle / Monolith in

To open a window on the megalithic constructions in the Azores Islands.

This modern monument stands on São Miguel Island, on the outskirts of Ponta Delgada, direction Lagoa, and overlooks the Atlantic Ocean.
It is now proven that the Azores islands were inhabited before their re-discovery in the 15th century. Just as examples, dolmen and cup-marks have been found on Terceira : http://www.megalithic.co.uk/article.php?sid=37436 (non vidi).
