Between - 3300 and - 2800 on a headland, old
place of cutting up of coastal flint, one communautée Neolithic built
this collective burial.
Deaths are buried there with various objects: potteries, weapons,
tools, jewels. A pearl in molten glass was found in the funerary room and
testifies to one use at the Bronze Age.
At the Gallo-Roman period, in the hillock already partially
degraded, ballot boxes cinéraires are hidden.
From the Middle Ages, this site is used as career for the
construction of buildings. Thus disappear from the stones of the pavement
and the péristalithe, some pillars and at least a flagstone of cover.
With the XIX 2nd and at the beginning of XX 2nd century, the
shady walk is used as handing-over with cart. In the east, following the
stone extractions, the flagstone is inclined.
Obstructing the visibility of a coastal battery, the monument
is dynamited during the second war.
Excavated in 1986 and 1987, the ground will be repurchased
by the general council of Finistère and the commune of Plouhinec in 1988
and the monument will be restored.
