In this perspective, the work aims to provide an example of reciprocal contributions of geomorphology to the study of archaeological sites and of the latter to the study of reliefs, in this case granite, thus to illustrate the interest of a joint examination of megaliths, their location and their environment following a geoarchaeological approach.\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eA second objective, of a practical nature, is to provide visitors with the means to discover for themselves facts relating to the characteristics, origins and environment of the alignments, starting from the observation of the menhirs on the ground, their surface and their shapes, their arrangement and their distribution.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e \u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eBeyond that, the book aims to show the usefulness of a common heritage, archaeological and geomorphological approach, as well as a joint popularization of knowledge relating to the menhir fields of the Carnac region and their environment.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Antinoë","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47621144904004,"sku":"28604","price":35.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0574\/4043\/6408\/files\/9686_raw.jpg?v=1702556314","url":"https:\/\/anttopinoe.com\/en-en\/products\/les-champs-de-menhirs-du-pays-de-carnac-patrimoine-archeologique-et-geomorphologique","provider":"Antinoë","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
