La Chabola de la Hechicera (Basque: Sorginaren Txabola, 'The Witch's Hut') is a dolmen constructed between 3000 and 1500 BC in Elvillar, Álava, Basque Country, Spain[1]. Three large vertical stones support a large horizontal flat stone[1]. Nine large stones form a chamber in a polygonal shape, while a corridor flanked by five stones is divided into two sections[1]. The site was probably a funerary construction to hold the remains of people from a nearby settlement[1].
