Great Dolmen of Zambujeiro ((ポルトガル語:Anta Grande do Zambujeiro)) is a megalithic monument located in Nossa Senhora da Tourega, near Valverde, in the municipality of Évora, considered one of the biggest such structures in the Iberian Peninsula. ==History== Research has dated this dolmen structure to between 4000-3000 B.C., concurrent with the megalithic construction associated with the region of Évora. It is linked to the dolmen culture of the ''Anta Grande da Comenda da Igreja'' (''Great Dolmen of Comenda da Igreja'' in the municipality of Montemor-o-Novo.〔 In 1965, there were archaeological excavations completed by Henrique Leonor Pina, resulting in the discovery of a number of artefacts that were transferred to the museum of Évora.〔 These excavations, which created some controversy (due to techniques used to examine the structure), unearthed slate tablets, necklaces, crosiers, copper objects, ceramics and carinated bowls.〔 Due to its importance, the ''Great Dolmen of Zambujeiro'' ((ポルトガル語:Anta Grande do Zambujeiro)) was declared a national monument by the Portuguese government in 1971 (Decree-Law No.516/71, 22 November 1971).〔 With fears of deterioration of the archaeological site, a metallic enclosure was constructed to protect the site (1983).〔 A secondary series of excavations were completed between 1989-1990, under the direction of Carlos Tavares da Silva (although there have been no publications on its results).〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Great Dolmen of Zambujeiro」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
