Hi again Charles,

Do you know anything about the monument, or if there are more of that type thereabouts? It bears an uncanny likeness to a Cork/Kerry asc, is why I ask. The orientation you gave, allowing wildness of guess, would also fit.

Do you know anything about 'circles' around here (Andalusia), if you happen to read this, George? I went through my bookshelves last night and came up with nothing.

Didn't see mention of the orienation would be interested . The dolmens of Sevilla tend to be oriented 80 -100 while in neighbouring Cadiz it's more like 230 . It is very ASC like but also , partly because of it's size a capstone dolmen .

Ah. A capstone dolmen. That might also fit.

Here's his reply about orientation:
