Spring in Aquitaine:Dordogne
En recherchant l'emplacement des 3 bornes, dolmen probable sur la commune de Jumilhac, nous avons trouvé un lieu traité comme un point d'érection de menhir par nos ancêtres il y a plusieurs millénaires.
Sur place, nous avons découvert une source qui fût sacrée et qui suscite encore un respect de la part des gens (Belles pierres de quartz blanc)
L'accès se fait à pied dans une pâture, de préférence quand le troupeau n'y est pas !
Auto translation: By researching the location of the 3 markers, a probable dolmen in the commune of Jumilhac, we found a place treated as a point of erection of a menhir by our ancestors several millennia ago.
On site, we discovered a source which was sacred and which still arouses respect from people (Beautiful white quartz stones)
Access is on foot in a pasture, preferably when the herd is not there!
