54-Meter Stone Monument Reveals 4,400-Year-Old Sahara Burial
An antennae tumulus stretching 54.5 meters across Western Sahara has yielded something archaeologists have long lacked: a securely dated burial. A team excavating at Wadi Lawash el Telli found a single individual beneath the stones and placed the interment between 4,417 and 4,100 calibrated years before present, as reported by Arkeonews. The result finally anchors one of the Sahara’s most distinctive funerary monuments in time—and opens a closer look at who built it and why.

A Strange Monument in a Harsh Landscape
The structure combines an oval mound with two long lines of limestone slabs extending eastward like antennae. Its mound measures about 12.5 by 10 meters and rises no more than three meters, while the full monument reaches 54.5 meters across the gravel plain. The builders used local Devonian limestone without mortar, and most of the blocks were small enough to be moved by one person.
