It's definitely Manio. The setting is called the Quadrilataire de Manio and the menhir is the Geant de Manio.
The Quadrilataire is unusual as it is looking less lekely that it ever contained a mound or burials. It could be a unique transistionary monument between the passage 'graves' and cromlechs.
Nearby is the Tetre Tumulaire de Manio. A low mound within which were discovered a number of small kists.
An earlier menhir pokes therough the mound and the whole lot is stradled by the later Kermario Alignements.
Don't know if that's any use...

eh?

Thanks Mark - yeah interesting stuff. Didn't get there last time I was in Carnac so my memories are a bit old & fuzzy despite what a great impression it made on me. (Got me photies of course....)

Wanna get back over there with Jane in the next coupla years - she's not been yet.

The name thing's weird innit? Mebbe I was thinking it's the same spelling as Kermario... durrr!!!

love
