Kermarquer menhir

Site Type: Standing Stone (Menhir)
Country: France (Bretagne:Morbihan (56))
Visited: Yes on 6th Jul 2005. My rating: Condition 5 Ambience 5 Access 4
Kermarquer menhir submitted by TheCaptain on 18th May 2011. The menhir been shaped and smoothed, with carvings on three faces, which are quite difficult to make out in the strong mid afternoon sunlight, but at other times may be quite clear.
I counted at least four crook shapes on the stone, two on the southwest side, one on the southeast face and one on the north east side, but there are probably more. These carvings are not engravings, but are in relief, and they face in both directions.
