Text from the folder “Parcours des menhirs et dolmens du causse de Sauveterre” :
The rectangular room has monolithic paving. A short vestibule at the east side allowed access to this room (today buried in the mound). The excavations of Doctor Prunières at the end of the 19th century, preserved in the Musée de l'Homme in Paris, almost completely emptied the room, however a recent study, prior to the consolidation of the monument, made it possible, in the mound, to find Iron Age furniture.
(possible access by car via the road)
