Necropolis Excavated in the Rock – Forneca
Set of 8 graves placed in three groups on outcrops of Grés de Silves (sandstone) (5+2+1). These have sub-trapezoidal forms, recesses for fitting out lids and north-south orientations.
On the outcrop where the largest group is located, circular shapes, usually associated with pagan rituals, can also be seen on the sandstone.
