It's odd that there are so few typical dolmens on Sicily when Sardinia and Tunisia have them aplenty . Does Piccolo include the hypogeic graves at Rocazzo etc . ? Any new finds in the past decade ? Are ye visiting , thoughts o' Palermo in the Europa league 2018 ? |

| Any idea if dolmens exist further east than Tunisia? |

Thousands. Tunisia was mentioned was because, like Sardinia, it is close to Sicily . |

| Thank you for that, George. You have cheered me up. Quite seriously, eastward examples appreciated. |

| Scrap that, George, unless you feel inclined to. Sorry, was lazy. Just Wiki'd 'dolmen'. Er, WOW, in non archaeological parlance. Had no idea. Am quite interested in various designs. Fascinating. Should TMA cover Korea? |

| Yeah going over next Easter (dolmens and a possible Simple Minds gig), but have Palermo in mind. |

| Just had a good read of the Wikipedia dolmen entry...and it i s a good read. Went down to external links: TMP's there, not TMA. I can't add due to 'tech'. Anyone? I wonder if this anonymity is reflected elsewhere according to site type. Haven't checked, literally just now noticed this 'absence'. So..if a worthy anyone fancies checking stuff and maybe raising this place's profile... |
