Anta is the Portuguese name for about 5,000 megaliths built during the Neolithic period in the area of Portugal.
The Anta das Pedras Grandes (Dolmen of large stones) is a late-Neolithic (between 4500 and 2000 BC) site located in Casal Nova in the parish of Caneças, in the Odivelas municipality, in the Lisbon District of Portugal.
Excavations in the early 21st century suggest that it was originally built as a dolmen or single-chamber megalithic tomb, consisting of a polygonal long chamber with eight supporting stones about 3 metres tall, and a short access corridor.
[1][4] The Anta das Pedras Grandes now forms the centrepiece of a small urban park, which was officially opened in late 2018.
The remaining stones, which had all fallen, were lifted, to provide a clearer impression of the original architecture of the megalith.
