The Breton Hill: A Fairy's Blessing and a Mother's Hope

The Mané-er-Hroëk tumulus, nestled in Locmariaquer, France, is a captivating megalithic site. It measures roughly 100m long, 60m wide, and 10m high. Inside, a tomb chamber is shielded by three massive coverstones and lined with dry-stone walls. The chamber floor is interwoven with large flat stones and holds relics, such as a jadeite ring, a jadeite hachet, jasper pendeloques, callaïs beads, polished fibrolithe haches, sharpen flints, and charcoal. These treasures from the tumulus can be found at the Society polymathique du Morbihan and the museum of history and archaeology of Vannes. Known as Mané er Hroëck in Breton, this man-made hill stands guard at the river Auray's mouth.
