This is a huge monolith in porphyry granite, in medium grain with a longed e ellipsoidal shape. It is possible that it comes from an area with similar outcrops located about 1 Km. to the NO from the place where the Monument was primarily raised up. It was probably a menhir with 4 metres high. It is also possible to recognize in its surface some attempts to regulate it, as well as on the decorations graved in punching, namely a circle and some lines.
