The Dolmen Catllar 2 (also called Arca de Calahons, Coffre de l'Arca de Calaons or Saint-Jacques de Calaone) is a stone box of the Solsonès type in Catllar near Molitg-les-Bains in the Pyrénées-Orientales department in France . In France, dolmen is the generic term for Neolithic megalithic structures of all kinds (see: French nomenclature ).

The stone box is small, deepened and its top plate rests at an angle.

Not far away, on the other side of a fence, there are two small broken boxes, commonly called "caixa" here.

Nearby is the Molitg dolmen (also called Pla de l'Arca or Catllar 1)
