This is located in Cavez, Cabeceiras de Basto, Portugal. As far as I know it has not been surveyed. The area might be be developed within the next fews years. I am afraid that it will be destroyed if it is not recognized as historic. I do not know who to contact about this. Any help is appreciated. |

(2010-04-23) | From what I remembered the cap stone is not bedrock. It is a real chamber; small but enough for 2 people to sit inside. I posted another pic of the side view, but it's not any better. I am trying to get better pictures. |
