Chambered Tomb in Lombardia
Close to the village Manerba a unique discovery was made - a group of chambered tombs with timber chambers. The chambers had 2x1 m in size, and their floor was covered with stones. Most of the tombs had trances of fire, probably connected with some rituals.
The Manerba site shows similarities with several chambered tombs from the area of Western Alps.
