A dolmen (/dlmn/) or portal tomb is a type of single-chamber megalithic

tomb, usually consisting of two or more upright megaliths supporting a large

flat horizontal capstone or "table". Most date from the early Neolithic period
(4000–3000 BCE) and were sometimes covered with earth or smaller
stones to form a tumulus (burial mound). Small pad-stones may be wedged
between the cap and supporting stones to achieve a level appearance.[1] In
many instances, the covering has eroded away, leaving only the stone "
skeleton".

Dolmens are large, stone structures, placed horizontally on top of a

stone base, or a closed stone box with a circular (most often),
triangular, or square entrance. There were “doors” in some dolmens
that closed off the entrance and the weight of some doors was 200
kilograms (441 pounds).

One version of the purpose of dolmens is that it was a method to glue

together the sandy-clay luting mass that protruded to the surface from
cracks in the ground.
