Orca de Seixas is a dolmen in the Necrópole Megalítica da Nave. It is integrated in an oval-shaped tumulus, about 25 x 19 m. It has a 7 m long passage, oriented to ENE.
The entrance is closed by a thin slab. In the surrounding area are still several stones visible, probably fragments of supporting stones and the capstone.
