Dolmen de Mané-Kerioned, Neolithic dolmen in Carnac, France
The Mané Kerioned site features three separate dolmens constructed with large stone blocks, forming distinct burial chambers connected by corridors.
Built around 3500 BCE, these megalithic structures underwent archaeological excavations in 1866, revealing numerous pottery fragments beneath their capstones.
The name Mané-Kerioned translates to 'hill of the elves' in Breton language, reflecting local beliefs about supernatural beings inhabiting these ancient structures.
Located along National Route 768 between Auray and Plouharnel, the site remains accessible year-round with designated walking paths for visitors.
Six of the twenty-seven stone pillars display intricate geometric engravings, including interlaced rectangles and serpentine patterns similar to Table des Marchands.
