La Hougue Bie - Internal Pics

La Hougue Bie - interior

The segmenting stones of the front chamber area.
These stones narrow the chamber back to the width of the passage, but they are not in an opposite
arrangement, as might be expected for jamb stones, instead they are arranged in a triangle to form
 a kind of loose "devil trap". The original purpose of this strange arrangement is unknown.
