Should we call Wikipedia "Wicked-pedia" now for posting such suggestive material?  Just imagine a boy, a girl... a CHILD, playing near such a large erect structure!

Where, pray-tell ARE his parents??? Taking photos of this scene?

<gasp!!!!>

The Géant du Manio, a 6.5 metre menhir in Carnac, Brittany.

The shape of a menhir tends to be square, narrowing toward the top. Some have vertical grooves and certain of those at Carnac appear to have been partially smoothed.

Practically nothing is known of the social organization or religious beliefs of the people who erected the menhirs. We have no trace even of these peoples' language, however we do know that they buried their dead, and had the skills to grow cereal, farm, and make pottery, stone tools, and jewelry. Speculation as to their use remains speculation, however it is likely that many had a functionality involving fertility rites and seasonal cycles. Until recently, menhirs were associated with the Beaker people, who inhabited Europe during the later third millennium BC; the European late Neolithic and early Bronze Age. However, recent research into the age of megaliths in Brittany strongly suggests a far older origin, perhaps back to six to seven thousand years ago.^[2]
