Log Text: no. 2 has two superb huge chambers just below the first major parking lot for the zoo. I visited alone. The site on the top of the hill labeled as no.1 in the description is also a fine chamber with reconstructed access passage. The site no. 3 was locked to entry. Despite being on the grounds of a very busy park and zoo these sites were peaceful and deserted.

Old Stone Fort submitted by bat400 on 30th Jul 2006. Entrance to "Old Stone Fort."
Twin earthen mounds flanked a rectangular earth and stone work enclosure. This enclosure opened into the interior of the "Fort" to the left at the far end. You can see the back wall of the entry "room." These enclosure walls were much higher when first built. Portions of the ground were paved as for a walkway.

They were recently (1973) uncovered. This is a detail of two of the three rosettes of different sizes. This realy cheers you up!

Pedra da Arca (Malpica) submitted by Condros on 12th Nov 2003. In Galicia, Spain, there are some incredible references to this tomb.

Petit Mont submitted by AlexHunger on 20th Dec 2004. Petit Mont in Arzon, dating to about 4600 BCE at the earliest, is one of the most significant Cairns in Britany, but unfortunately one of the most brutaly vandalized. In 1942, German troops built a bunker and Flak emplacement into the South East Corner of the cairn, which compeltely destroyed one of the chambers and caused the collapse of the second one pictured above, which has since been restored. The megalithic entrance is sought to be an addition from Gallo-Roman times. All pictures have be...

Peyrefit Dolmen

Visited: Yes on 15th Nov 2014. My rating: Condition 4 Ambience 5 Access 4
Peyrefit dolmen submitted by ocdolmen on 1st Jul 2007. Peyrefit's dolmen is, for me, one of the most beautiful dolmens of the department of the Lot.
Most impressive is the very important thickness of the table in limestone, 1 metre which is in fact the thickest in the region of Quercy.
A big cup is engraved on the top of the capstone.
In the same area, we can also see the very beautiful dolmen of Artillou.
