Dolmen des Lacs 2 submitted by richardfrance on 28th Jan 2008. We found 2 & 3 at Les Lacs but ran out of time to search for the others. (see Les Lacs 2 for more, and www.dolmen.wordpress.com for more photos, archaeologist sketches, etchings from 19th.c. and more text).
This site, like so many in lower Languedoc, received a burst of attention in the '70's & '80's from academics on their way up, only to be left languishing. Perhaps funds dried up, perhaps reputations were now made, perhaps other bigger sites had a more cachet.

Malves Menhir submitted by thecaptain on 6th Mar 2006. This large menhir is to be found a few hundred metres outside the winemaking village of Malves-en-Minervois, just across the river.
It is over 5 metres high (with apparently 4 metres more under the ground), 1.5 metres in width but less than half a metre thick.

Dolmen de la Madeleine d’Albesse

Site Type: Burial Chamber or Dolmen

Visited: Yes on 19th Jul 2001. My rating: Condition 3 Ambience 3 Access 4
Dolmen de la Madeleine d’Albesse submitted by thecaptain on 7th Mar 2006. The chamber itself is quite large, but a bit of a wreck these days. It looks to be a sort of V shaped chamber 6 metres in length and up to 3 metres wide
It is open to the east at about 118°, which looks right along the valley below the ridge.

Bruyère d'Usclas
Trip No.37 Entry No.33 Date Added: 23rd Feb 2020
Site Type: Burial Chamber or Dolmen
Country: France (Languedoc:Hérault (34))
Visited: Yes on 17th Jul 2001. My rating: Condition 5 Ambience 3 Access 4
Bruyère d'Usclas submitted by TheCaptain on 27th Oct 2007. The front does not have the oven door of nearby Coste-Rouge, but the entrance is to one side, which shows evidence of a carved and enlarged opening area.
The stones are fitted so well that almost no light gets in apart from through the entrance.
