Tholos de Montelirio is a megalithic tomb in Seville Province, Spain, at Valencina de la Concepción. Built around 3000-2800 BC during the Copper Age, it was discovered in 1868, and the site was abandoned for decades before excavation resumed in 1980 due to urban expansion of Seville[1]. Today, the structure remains closed to the public, but its grave goods are displayed at the Archaeological Museum of Seville[1].
