A 4-5,000-old-year stone monument, with 144 standing blocks of granite, each more than 6 feet tall, has been uncovered at the bottom of a reservoir in Spain, and only because of a year-long draught.
The site, known as Dolmen de Guadalperal, has been dubbed the ‘Spanish Stonehenge’ but although the stones are smaller than Britain’s iconic structure, in Spain they are more numerous. They are arranged in circles but their history and origins are somewhat of a mystery.
For a number of months, western Spain has been ravaged by a drought, exposing the large granite megaliths for the first time in more than 50 years.
But the site isn’t actually a new discovery, with the German priest and amateur archaeologist, Hugo Obermaier discovering it in 1925, although the Romans were also thought to be aware of the site. Watch the video to learn more about this exciting ancient find.
