north and south, east and west; but there are more to the south 
than to the north, and more to the east than to the west. The 
greater number open towards the southeast. I exhibit for purposes 
of comparison the ground plan of several of the important dolmens 
(Fig. 5). It will be perceived that though they are all one general 
type, yet no particular or precise form has been invariably followed 
in their construction. Each one has its own individuality and 
differs from every other. 
The fine, unshaded lines indicate the covering stones. The 
direction of the opening is indicated by letters SSE, etc., ete.
