Menhir de Puig ses Forques

Menhir de Puig ses Forques, Prehistoric menhir in Calonge i Sant Antoni, Spain.

The Menhir de Puig ses Forques is a granite menhir 2 metres tall, 1 metre wide and 0.7 metres thick, standing on a hill near Calonge between the C-31 motorway and the Mediterranean coast. The upright stone is wider at the top and narrows toward the base, its rough surface mottled pinkish-tan, grey and beige, with orange and yellow lichen on the upper left and deep cracks across the right side and lower face.

The menhir dates from 3500 to 1800 BC, spanning the Neolithic and Chalcolithic periods. It was found lying on the ground at the start of the 20th century and was re-erected in 1958 near its original position under the direction of historian Lluís Esteve i Cruañas.

The menhir stands beside the dolmen of Puig ses Forques, a megalithic tomb built nearby in the same period. The two monuments are read together as a prehistoric ensemble on the hill above Calonge, between the C-31 motorway and the Mediterranean coast less than two kilometres away.
