Standing Stone (Menhir) in Corsica:Corse-Sud (2A)

The easternmost and smallest of the 5 relocated and re-erected statue-menhirs in the Barjacolo valley north-west of the central monument. It is rather eroded, but still shows some facial features. Unlike most of the other statue-menhirs at Filitosa it is unarmed.
