cromlechs
Cromlechs are ancient stone structures, typically consisting of large, upright stones arranged in a circular or oval formation. They were built thousands of years ago by prehistoric peoples, likely for ceremonial, religious, or burial purposes. Often found in Europe, especially in areas like Ireland, the UK, and France, cromlechs resemble stone circles or arrangements and provide insight into early human social and spiritual practices. Their precise purpose remains partly speculative, but they demonstrate early engineering skills and cultural significance attached to the landscape and ancestors.
