Boryeong Jukcheong-ri Dolmen

Twelve dolmens stand in Jangteo village (also known as Gihyeon village), Jukcheong-ri, Ungcheon-eup. This site lies at the centre of the village, where a large number of dolmens are densely concentrated; the village once had many other dolmens besides these, but apart from this group most have since been destroyed. Most of the dolmens are made of gneiss, and since there are numerous gneiss outcrops in the hills to the northeast, it is thought that the stone was brought from there to build them.
