EDITORS COMMENTS
This Neolithic scene depicts a group of prehistoric people working together to construct a dolmen, a type of megalithic tomb commonly found in Europe during the Neolithic and Chalcolithic periods, around 6000 BC. The dolmen, characterized by its large flat stones supporting smaller ones, was believed to serve as a communal burial site and a symbol of social cohesion and status within Neolithic communities. The photograph, taken circa 1900, offers a fascinating glimpse into the past, allowing us to imagine the daily lives and social dynamics of our ancient ancestors. The men in the image, dressed in simple animal hides and furs, are shown working in unison to move and position the heavy stones, demonstrating their physical strength and teamwork. The women and children look on, perhaps providing support and encouragement, or perhaps tending to other tasks essential to the community's survival. The construction of a dolmen was likely a communal event, bringing together families and clans to work together towards a common goal. This sense of unity and cooperation would have strengthened social bonds and reinforced the importance of the group. The completed dolmen would have served as a lasting testament to their collective efforts and a reminder of their shared history and heritage. This photograph is an invaluable historical record, offering us a rare insight into the lives of our Neolithic ancestors and the ways in which they built their communities and marked their territory. The scene is a poignant reminder of the enduring power of human connection and the importance of working together towards a common goal, even in the most primitive of societies.
