The Dolmen of Trillol (also called "Cabane des Maures" or "Dolmen de la Falière"), excavated in 1922, is located 800 m from Le Trillol near Rouffiac-des-Corbières south of Carcassonne and Narbonne in the Aude department in France . In France, dolmen is the generic term for Neolithic megalithic structures of all kinds (see: French nomenclature ).
The “Dolmen simple”, which consists of four residual stones, is oriented west-east. The approximately square 0.4 m thick capstone measures approximately 2.45 × 2.42 m. The sloping side stones measure around 1.7 × 1.7 m and 1.88 × 1.2 m. The end stone measures 1.75 × 0.95 m.
