Necrópolis megalítica de Panoría, Bronze Age burial site in Darro, Spain.

The necropolis contains 19 graves with trapezoidal and rectangular stone chambers positioned at the eastern end of Sierra Harana mountain range.

Archaeological excavations between 2015 and 2019 revealed over 55,000 human skeletal remains dating from 5600 to 4100 years ago.

The burial chambers face sunrise during equinoxes, indicating the ancient inhabitants integrated astronomical observations into their funeral practices.

Nine excavated graves contain numerous artifacts including ceramic vessels, flint tools, arrowheads, and seashells placed alongside human remains.

DNA analysis revealed that women outnumbered men two to one in burials, with an even higher ratio of ten to one among juvenile remains.
