The dolmen de Tella, also known as Piedra de Vasar or Losa de la Campa, is a perfectly preserved megalith located in Tella, in the municipality of Tella-Sin within the Sobrarbe region. Situated at an altitude of 1241 meters, the site is notable for its preserved structure, even though the tumulus that once surrounded it has almost disappeared.
In 1954, the archaeologist Antonio Beltrán identified the site and conducted excavations. During his work, he discovered remains including a skull and teeth. These findings provide a historical glimpse into the inhabitants of the area.
Today, the dolmen is visible from a rest area on the road leading from the A-138 highway to the town of Tella. It remains a preserved archaeological site for those traveling through the region.
