Tumulus du Bois de Tuckey
Tumulus du Bois de Tuckey submitted by LaDragonne : Aspect de la butte funéraire au XXe siècle. Lanouaille, Site in Aquitaine: Dordogne (24) France (Vote or comment on this photo)
Round Barrow(s) in Aquitaine:Dordogne (24)

2 tumuli funéraires datant du premier âge du fer ont été localisés dans le bois de Tuckey (ou Tuquet) sur une colline à proximité d'une antique voie de communication en crête (une pouge) . L'un d'entre eux a été rasé au début du siècle passé, l'autre fouillé avec récolte de mobilier. Il avait une forme ovale aux dimensions approximatives de 15 m de long, 12 m de large et 4 m de hauteur
Depuis, le bois a disparu au profit d'un champ, le monument a été rasé, nivelé.
Des photographies figurent sur un panneau didactique planté sur le chemin.
