Cova d'en Daina

Cova d'en Daina is a Late Neolithic dolmen near Romanya de la Selva in Santa Cristina d'Aro, Catalonia, dated to 2700-2200 BC. Classified as a "Catalan gallery" or wide corridor grave, it features a covered gallery 7 m long built from granite slabs, with a circular tumulus and cromlech originally 11 m in diameter. Discovered by Pere Cama i Casas in 1894, later excavations by Lluis Esteva i Cruanas yielded fragmented human bones and teeth from adults and children, flint tools, pottery fragments, and ornaments including necklace beads and small pieces of slate and gold. It is considered one of the most complete and best-preserved megaliths in Catalonia.
