Talayotic culture, the Taula is a large vertical monolith or supporting stone combined with a horizontal one resting on top, forming a large T-shaped monument.Hmmmm....slightly reminiscent of Gobleki Tepe

"Taula" means table in Catalan, as they were by tradition once thought to be tables used by giants.That's where you put the sheep to feed the Cyclops.

I envy these archeologists - digging what sounds like a great site and spending time in Menorca, possible the nicest island in the Med. Thanks for posting.

The way they are lined up, they kinda look like they were the supports for a floor of a structure. Maybe this was built like the building the Philistines had that Samson toppled. Probably just what they are saying it was though.
