“…In fact, previous studies, not based in GIS data and also considering megaliths without corridors, have suggested that greatest dolmens, sometimes with relevant grave goods according to García and Spahni (1959) data, could serve as special markers of a route along the Gor River (Spanedda et al, 2014). Locational hierarchy between megalithic graves according size have been also referred in other Iberian areas (C amara et al, 2014;Carrero-Pazos et al, 2019). Another significant future line is to discriminate between environmental and social factors in the spatial ordering of the dolmens.…”

“…The megalithic phenomenon constitutes a subject of study of great importance for the understanding of Late Prehistory, especially due to its relationship to the process of monumentalization of the landscape, creating specific messages “from and toward” prehistoric societies (Cámara et al, 2018; Carrero‐Pazos et al, 2019; Holtorf, 1996; Lozano et al, 2014; Wheatley et al, 2010). This practice began in the Neolithic period, with a rapid development in several areas of Western Europe, in parallel to the development of the first European farming communities and being closely linked to the emergence of very important social and ideological changes (Blank et al, 2020).…”

“…Point pattern analysis (PPA) is the study of the spatial arrangements of points in space. The application of PPA in landscape archaeology is growing popular for investigating both settlements [ 51 , 52 ] and monuments patterns [ 53 55 ]. A point pattern corresponds to a set of locations of spatial events generated by a stochastic process within a bounded region [ 56 ].…”

“…la abundancia de canteras en las inmediaciones de este conjunto, tanto las señaladas peñas como otras crestas rocosas de menor entidad, podría justificar la alta concentración de túmulos en este tramo de la montaña, el de mayor dominio visual, a ambas vertientes. un patrón locacional que parece encontrar puntos en común con otras áreas geográficas (Bradley 1991;Carrero et al 2019).…”
