The meaning and function of such monuments have been hotly debated among archaeologists.
An 'exceptional' prehistoric monument has been discovered by archaeologists at an almost 3,000-year-old funerary complex.The ancient decorated stone monument, known as a stela, was unearthed in the necropolis of Las Capellanías, which is in the town of Cañaveral de León in southwestern Spain.
Díaz-Guardamino and her colleagues started fieldwork at the site last year to check whether this first stela came from the site or had been brought in from elsewhere. It was this work that demonstrated the presence of a funerary complex at the site and showed that the original stela most likely came from there. The team subsequently found a second stela at the site.
