tall upright rectangular monoliths standing about 2 m. apart. Directly east of these,
at a distance of 3 m., are two very strange looking monolithic objects of exactly the
same size and form, side by side. Each looks like a large beach chair of perfectly
rectangular outlines; indeed they make very comfortable hooded seats. In the sides,
semicircles were cut so that one sitting in one of the chairs may look into the next
by leaning slightly forward. It is impossible of course to determine the original purpose
of these objects; but it is probable that they were connected with some sort of
mechanism connected with the pressing of olives; for there are several large rock-hewn
