The Megalithic Portal is a web resource dedicated to prehistoric archaeology and closely related subjects.
The Megalithic Portal's mission is to document, publicise and protect ancient sites and help to ensure their preservation for future generations.
The information is maintained by a team of voluntary editors and administrators and has become the centre of a keen user group.
[2] As of January 2010 the Megalithic Portal has been constituted as a non profit making membership society[3] The information contributed by thousands of visitors from all over the world covers types of prehistoric monument from chambered tombs and standing stones to hillforts and settlements, and much in between.
While the site still calls itself the Megalithic Portal, it has also become the biggest online repository of data on related areas of interest such as holy wells and ancient crosses in the UK.
