Standing Stones

2

Where I live there are lots of standing stones (ancient druid) I have marked them as 'monuments' as this to me looks the best option. Is this correct? Thanks

Use historic=archaeological, site_type=megalith, megalith_type=something. As Hendrik says, the value for megalith_type differs a lot depending on the country, even if the object is similar.

Hi Tairmuir You could use this linkTag:historic=archaeological site to look around at the Wiki and use the tag accordingly. The Megaliths carry several names in some countries. Have a good time and don’t lose yourself in time Greetz Hendrik
