Granite uprights define a chamber and passage on elevated ground near Cunha Baixa. Charcoal recovered during archaeological work places construction around 3140–2880 BCE. A large fallen slab lies beside the chamber, while remnants of the surrounding mound preserve part of its original funerary setting.
