Dolmen du Coll de la Llosa

Saint-Michel-de-Llotes, France

The Coll de la Llosa dolmen is a megalithic structure located on the border of the communes of Bouleternère, Casefabre, and Saint-Michel-de-Llotes in the French department of Pyrénées-Orientales in the Occitanie region. The corridor dolmen is surrounded by a tumulus measuring ten meters in diameter, and is covered with a slab bearing numerous engravings in the form of crosses and cup marks. Its function is probably that of a collective burial of the chamber or corridor type; it dates from the 4th millennium BC, which would link it to the Neolithic culture of the southern Chasséen, well identified in the Pyrénées-Orientales.
