EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Anta Grande do Zambujeiro: A Journey Back in Time to Portugal's Ancient Megalithic Monument Anta Grande do Zambujeiro, located in the Alentejo region of Portugal, is a captivating megalithic monument that transports us back to the Neolithic Age, around 4000-35000 BC. This impressive structure, nestled near the picturesque village of Nossa Senhora da Tourega and not far from the historic city of Evora, is a testament to the rich prehistoric heritage of Europe's Iberian Peninsula. The entranceway to Anta Grande do Zambujeiro, as depicted in this evocative image, offers a glimpse into the mystery and allure of this ancient site. The granite portal, weathered by time and the elements, stands proudly as an invitation to explore the hidden treasures within. The quoit or dolmen, as these types of structures are often referred to, is a complex of megaliths that includes a chamber, the entranceway, and a series of orthostats or upright stones. The Anta Grande do Zambujeiro is not just a tomb, but a symbol of the ingenuity and cultural sophistication of our prehistoric ancestors. The monument's precise alignment with the solstices and equinoxes suggests that it held significant astronomical and spiritual importance for the people who built it. The site's location in the Alentejo region, known for its vast plains, cork oak forests, and sun-kissed landscapes, adds to the sense of wonder and discovery. As we stand before the entranceway, we are reminded of the enduring power of history and the deep connections that bind us to our past. The Anta Grande do Zambujeiro is a humbling reminder of the human capacity for creativity, innovation, and the desire to understand the world around us. A visit to this magnificent monument is a must for anyone interested in megalithism, prehistory, or the rich cultural heritage of Portugal and Europe.
