SUMMARY – THE ORIGINS OF MEGALITHISM IN THE WEST MEDITERRANEAN AREA: THE ENCIRCLED TOMBS – The origins of Megalithic Civilization in the west Mediterranean area can be placed between the fifth and the fourth millennium B.C in north-eastern Iberia (Catalunya), southern France (Languedoc and Provence) and in the islands of Sardinia and Corse. Its early monuments are lithic cists which were usually structured within circular tumular graves. Among these different geographical areas it is possible to recognize both common features and regional characteristics.
