Batateiro mound

Melgaço
Description

Megalithic monument with reasonable dimensions. Seven struts, and another shifted one, make the whole dolmen. The slab is the head in on upright position; the other struts -which overlap each other - lean symmetrically against it. On the inner side of the strut which is inclined towards the interior of the chamber, some pictures can be seen: parallel lines, slightly perceptible, because the grooves are slightly carved. The medium-grained granite cover,  with 3.23 long and 1.98 m wide, has, in the southeastern end, two parallel marks (small depressions carved in the granite),  and are rectangular.
