Tholos de El Romeral, Bronze Age archaeological site in Antequera, Spain

The monument contains a long corridor with drystone walls that leads to two round chambers constructed with limestone slabs and stones.

Archaeological excavations from the 1990s uncovered remains of 27 individuals along with pottery and jewelry dating back to 2200 BCE.

The site forms part of the Antequera Dolmens Archaeological Complex, which received UNESCO World Heritage status in 2016.

Visitors can access the main corridor and first chamber, while the second chamber remains restricted for preservation purposes.

The structure features an artificial mound measuring 45 meters in diameter, distinguishing it from nearby dolmens that utilize natural topography.
