From what i’ve seen. These look like shrine-like huts made of stones, almost looking like igloos. These dolmens are scattered through out the area of Carnac, and have time and time again have been found with bones in them uncovered due to the highly acidic soil in the area. Since these huts were actually built to house the buried bodies of likely people of

structures. Defined as Dolmens, they are dated to range in age from 10,000 to 25,000 years old and were built using two or more megaliths to support a large, horizontal capstone. No two Dolmens are alike, since these structures were constructed in harmony with the surrounding environment. Researches agree with the most probable theory about what purpose the Dolmens might have served. The probable theory being they were used as shelters and homes.

This essay aims to compare and contrast the nature of the rituals that would have taken place at any two of the sites that we encountered on our fieldtrip. The two megalithic sites that will be compared and contrasted in this essay will be the passage tomb known as Fourknocks in Co. Meath and the Proleek wedge tomb in Co. Louth. Both of these megalithic tombs characterise the majority of the Irish landscape and are of great importance to archaeologists as they give us an insight to the lifestyles

Dolmens were two stones standing upright from the ground and supporting a large single stone. Cromlechs were a combinations of menhirs and dolmens arranged in a circle or semicircle formation.

Archaeologists with Israel’s Tel-Hai College found a 65-foot-wide tomb known as a dolmen at Kibbutz Shamir in Israel.

The Imperial Pixies lived in an ancient dolmen on the island of Great Britain that was governed by the Roman Empire. Britain had frequently been the target of invasion by the Roman Empire, but it was the Emperor Claudius who was successful. Much of the island laid in ruin but the ancient dolmen remained intact. The Imperial pixies were first discovered around 44 AD. They were watched over by Aurora, the Roman goddess of the morning and Diana, goddess of the moon. The Imperial pixies are not to be

It seems that the human race is infatuated with stones. Stones are used for jewelry, architecture,1 statues, tombstones, and even printing. Printing on stone is called lithography. Even the word stone has many uses in the english language: a criminal can be stoned to death, and the British unit of weight is known as a “stone.” Going back to prehistoric times, specifically the Neolithic period, may provide some answers of why we as a species are so drawn to stone and its many uses. Relics from the

everyday objects, made statuettes, and crafted jewelry (Neal 12). Though these works of art seem simple, prehistoric man was also capable of creating stone structures called menhirs and dolmens. Menhirs “were upright stones of great size that were placed in circles, semicircles, or alignments” (Neal 13) while dolmens were connected to burials and death. While these artifacts reveal pieces of French history, the cave paintings at Lascaux
