Coetan Arthur, Neolithic chamber tomb near St David's Head, Pembrokeshire, Great Britain.
The burial structure features a substantial capstone measuring 6 meters in length and 2.5 meters in width, supported by a single upright stone.
Dating back to 3000 BCE, this burial chamber stands as evidence of ancient funeral practices during the early agricultural period in Britain.
The monument received its name from local narratives connecting it to King Arthur, who according to tales threw the stones from nearby Carn Llidi.
Visitors can reach the monument by following the Pembrokeshire Coast Path from Whitesands Bay parking area toward St David's Head.
The chamber's construction appears to mirror the slope of Carn Llidi, representing an example of early architectural alignment with natural landscapes.
