Renaggiu
Time of the megalithic systems in Corsica

The megalithic Alignement de Renaggiu (also Renaggio, or Rinaju) is a row of stones on the French Mediterranean island of Corsica . It is located 400 m south of the alignment of Stantari and the dolmen of Fontanaccia . Before they were discovered, the stones were overgrown with thick maquis .

The 46 menhirs of the north-south facing double row and the neighboring semicircle have been erected again and stand in a small holm oak tree at the foot of the rocks of Cauria. The row of stones comes from the Megalithic II or from the early Bronze Age (3000–1000 BC). Most menhirs are less than a meter high.
