Krkavče Stone, Ancient megalith near Krkavče, Slovenia.

Krkavče Stone is a prehistoric monument situated on a hillside at about 191 meters (627 feet) elevation, featuring a carved human figure on its surface. The engraved markings on the stone are distinctive and set it apart from similar structures found elsewhere in the region.

The monument was likely built between the 2nd and 1st century BCE, coinciding with early Roman influence in the region. Archaeological findings suggest local communities from that era constructed the stone.

The stone likely served as a gathering or ritual location for early communities in the area. Its elevated position made it a natural landmark that people could see from far away.

The site is reachable via marked walking trails from Krkavče village and can be visited throughout the year. The hilltop requires a moderate walk, so visitors should wear appropriate footwear and allow time for the journey.

The carved symbols on the stone remain mysterious and continue to puzzle researchers, as their exact meaning is not fully understood. These unsolved mysteries make the stone particularly intriguing to archaeologists.
