    Filitosa

    Posted by annaas 25 October 2011

    This is an amazing collection of carved standing stones, also known as 'Menhirs', which date to around 1500 B.C. These stones are highly unusual and very different to what we usually think of as standing stones, as many of them are carved with human faces and anatomical details. They really make you contemplate the nature of civillisation more than 3000 years ago!
