- The Anta de Adrenunes, located on top of a hill at 426 metres above sea level, in the municipality of Sintra, within Sintra-Cascais Natural Park, Lisbon District, Portugal, is believed to be a Stone Age burial chamber or megalithic monument. It is a structure consisting of a cluster of granite stones, between which there is a gallery about 5 metres high that is surmounted by monoliths that rest horizontally on vertical stones. The passage is thought to have served as a collective necropolis or dolmen during the megalithic period although no artifacts or burial chambers have been found to prove this. The site contains a geodesic landmark that has been inserted into one of the upper stones. Initial excavations by Joaquim Possidónio Narciso da Silva (1806-1896) found no evidence of funerary use. However, Da Silva presented the results of his research at one of the sessions of the International Congress of Anthropology and Prehistoric Archeology in 1871, referring to the site as a megalithic funerary monument. Later writers have argued that the site combines natural granite rocks, which are also found elsewhere in the area, with some architectural elements. They point to the layout of the rocks and their orientation to the sunset to argue that this suggests a megalithic structure that was probably of natural origin and was later worked on by humans. More recent excavations of the stones have provided some evidence of the intervention of humans, as granite wedges in the foundations of some of the stones have been identified. The approximately rectangular shape of some of the rocks also provides possible evidence of human intervention, although other writers have argued that the site is no more than a natural collection of rocks. Visiting the site requires a walk of about one kilometre from a tarred road. It receives relatively few visitors, although it is popular at the time of solstices and equinoxes. (en)
- Die Anta de Adrenunes ist ein ungewöhnlicher Dolmen östlich von Azoia, einer Ortschaft in der Gemeinde Colares im Kreis Sintra in der Estremadura in Portugal. Einige Quellen deuten darauf hin, dass es sich um einen Dolmen handelt, der als Kollektivgrab diente. Anta ist die portugiesische Bezeichnung für etwa 5000 Megalithanlagen die während des Neolithikums im Westen der Iberischen Halbinsel von den Nachfolgern der Cardial- oder Impressokultur errichtet wurden. Die Theorie, dass es sich um einen Dolmen handelt, wurde von Joaquim Possidónio Narciso da Silva (1806–1896) aufgestellt, der Ausgrabungen auf dem Gelände durchführte. Es wurden jedoch keine Anzeichen für Kammern oder sterbliche Überreste gefunden. Einige glauben daher, dass die Struktur ein Pseudodolmen ist. Auf jeden Fall belegt die Existenz von Unterfütterungen der Fundamente einiger Blöcke die Intervention von Menschen. Die Formation befindet sich abgelegen auf einem kleinen Hügel am Cabo da Roca und zeigt Spuren alter Feldsysteme in ihrer Nähe, so dass der Platz eine archäologische und kulturelle Bedeutung hat. Die Anta von Adrenunes wurde 1910 als klassifiziert. (de)
- A Anta de Adrenunes, localizada perto do Cabo da Roca, freguesia de Colares, município de Sintra, em Portugal, é um formação rochosa natural ocupada como sepulcro colectivo durante o período megalítico e erroneamente designada de anta, tratando-se assim de um monumento megalítico. No seguimento de estudo do local efectuado por Narciso da Silva, este sítio foi classificado como monumento nacional em 16 de Junho de 1910 (DG 136, de 23 de junho de 1910). (pt)
