Archaeologists Have Uncovered an Enormous Megalithic Complex of More Than 500 Standing Stones in Spain
More than 500 stones were found at La Torre-La Janera in Huelva, a province in the southeastern part of the country abutting the Portugal border. Among the types of megaliths unearthed were standing stones; dolmens, or tombs; mounds; and cists, or coffin-like boxes—all ranging in height from three to 10 feet.
However, of particular interest to the team of archaeologists was the fact that such varied megalithic forms were found so close together and were so well preserved. The majority of megaliths discovered at La Torre-La Janera were grouped into 26 alignments, or linear arrangements, and there were two cromlechs, or stone circles.
