Le Dehus

The carved slab in the roof of the main chamber.

This famous anthropomorphic carving was first spotted in 1916 on the second capstone and is known as "Le Gardien Du Tombeau".
Note the fracture line where the northern section (top) broke away and dropped to the main chamber floor.
For more information and high resolution photos of this carving see the Rock Art section.
