Explore Ancient times in Alentejo

Imagine, you are living or you are challenged to travel the Neolithic ancient times.

Imagine, the way you socialize, dancing around a bonfire, praying or even more, if you are an expert in Astronomy.

I'm thinking to take you to the region of Alentejo, a place not too far from Lisbon where some of the monoliths are standing up and modelling the open landscape, a typical home archaeological site as part of the Iberian Peninsula of those megalithic monuments.

The central menhir of Bulhoa

Normally those megalithic monuments are in circle! Would you ask why are these mysterious monuments in a circle?

Are you prepared? Ritual religious practices and cult could end up in your way.

I will probably leave you in your meditation once you know that the landscape of Alentejo had a Neolithic settlement.
