The Anta da Estria is a megalithic dolmen situated between Belas and Queluz in the Lisbon District of Portugal. Based on datings of human remains, it is believed to date back to the late-Neolithic and early-Chalcolithic eras (4000-2500 BC). The Anta da Estria, the Anta do Monte Abraão and the Anta da Pedra dos Mouros (also known as the Anta do Senhor da Serra) are collectively known as the Antas de Belas, and were first identified in the 1870s by Carlos Ribeiro (1813-1882), who is regarded as the "father" of Portuguese prehistoric archaeology.

dbo:abstract
  • Die Anta da Estria liegt zwischen Belas und Queluz (von der A9 aus zugänglich) bei einer Autobahnraststätte der A9 (CREL) nordwestlich von Lissabon in der Estremadura in Portugal. Anta ist die portugiesische Bezeichnung für etwa 5000 Megalithanlagen oder Dolmen, die während des Neolithikums im Westen der Iberischen Halbinsel von den Nachfolgern der Cardial- oder Impressokultur errichtet wurden. Die zwischen 3000 und 2000 v. Chr. errichtete Anta mit den Resten von sechs Tragsteinen (einer fehlt völlig) in einer polygonalen Langkammer gehört zu den „Antas de Belas“. Die Decksteine von Kammer und Gang und fast alle Tragsteine des Ganges fehlen oder sind abgeschlagen. Die ersten Ausgrabungen wurden von Carlos Ribeiro (1813–1882) Mitte des 19. Jahrhunderts durchgeführt. Die auch von Georg (1870–1957) und Vera Leisner (1885–1972) untersuchte Anta bewahrte Reste ihres Hügels. Im Jahre 1910 wurde die Anta zusammen mit den benachbarten Anten Anta do Senhor da Serra und Anta do Monte Abraão unter dem Namen Antas de Belas als Monumento Nacional eingetragen und geschützt. Zu den Funden gehören ein Báculo, Keramik, ein Lunula, Kalkstein- und Schieferplattenidole und eine Votivhacke. (de)
  • The Anta da Estria is a megalithic dolmen situated between Belas and Queluz in the Lisbon District of Portugal. Based on datings of human remains, it is believed to date back to the late-Neolithic and early-Chalcolithic eras (4000-2500 BC). The Anta da Estria, the Anta do Monte Abraão and the Anta da Pedra dos Mouros (also known as the Anta do Senhor da Serra) are collectively known as the Antas de Belas, and were first identified in the 1870s by Carlos Ribeiro (1813-1882), who is regarded as the "father" of Portuguese prehistoric archaeology. The dolmen is presently in a much-degraded condition and difficult to access. It was almost destroyed by construction in the 1990s of Portugal’s A9 motorway but was eventually incorporated into the landscaped area of a service station for that highway, facilitating easy access. However, the service area has since been closed and access by cars has been blocked. Pedestrian access remains possible, using a footbridge over a motorway slip road. Carlos Ribeiro, who carried out research in early 1875 and published his results in 1880, described the tomb as having a polygonal chamber, 2-5 metres wide and 2.75 metres high, approached by a corridor bordered by small slabs of limestone. Later excavations carried out by what is now the Portuguese Institute of Architectural and Archaeological Heritage (IPPAR), of the Direção-Geral do Património Cultural (Directorate-General for Cultural Heritage), under the direction of Ana Carvalho Dias have shown the corridor to make use of a pre-existing inclined depression in the rock. This dictated the orientation of the tomb, which points to 212-13 degrees west. Ribeiro identified nine raised slabs but did not identify any stones that could have formed a roof. He considered all of the slabs to have been locally sourced, and this has been confirmed by subsequent research. The hard limestone is similar to that used for the other Antas de Belas. Limited artifacts have been discovered at the site but many are thought to have been removed prior to the discovery by Ribeiro. Twelve arrowheads were identified, together with two bone artifacts and three small, almost-complete pots. While human remains were found, Ribeiro did not feel confident to identify the number of burials that had taken place at the tomb, which he had done for the Anta do Monte Abraão. (en)
