Cromlechs(from welsh crom curved and lech stone) consist of a series of monolithics, that are shaped like a parallelepiped that are hammed into the ground as a circle in order to delimit a particular areas, perhaps dedicated to magic rites.
They were spread in Sweden, France and above all in Great Britain.
MENHIR
Menhir men that means stone and hir that means high,long) are huge of monolithics shaped in a way that they assume a sharp and slender shape. They are hammed into the ground.
Nobody really knows their function, perhaps they were dedicated to the cult of the dead

Literally it means “slab of stone “.
In fact dolmens are megalithic structures made up of two or more vertical monolithic elements acting as working like function thorough pillars on which is placed horizontally an enormous stone slab!!!
