Archaeologists in the Upper Galilee region of Israel have uncovered a huge dolmen — a large flat stone that is laid upon upright ones, like a table top — that they say contradicts theories about the sophistication of civilization more than 4,000 years ago, during the “middle ages” of the Bronze Age Archaeologists in Israel stunned by dolmen discovery The Dolmen stone covers an area that is 10 feet wide and 6½ feet long, and it weighs an estimated 50 tons.
