Cova d'en Daina, Bronze Age dolmen in Romanyà de la Selva, Santa Cristina d'Aro, Spain.

The granite megalithic structure extends seven meters in length with an entrance passage leading to a burial chamber within a ten-meter circular tumulus.

Built between 2700 and 2200 BCE, the archaeological site was first documented in 1894 by Agustí Casas following its discovery by Pere Cama i Casas.

Excavations uncovered numerous artifacts including human remains, flint arrowheads, pottery fragments, and necklace beads, revealing ancient burial practices of the region.

The dolmen is accessible via the GIV-6612 road at kilometer 8.700, located within the protected natural area of Gavarres in Catalonia.

The entrance passage aligns with the southeast direction, allowing winter solstice sunlight to illuminate the interior of the burial chamber.
