... that the Dolmen de Soto in the Spanish Province of Huelva contains a subterranean neolithic burial site, is assumed to be built 4,500 and 5,000 years ago and into its grave chamber the sunbeams enter for a few minutes during the equinox?
Sources: The Dolmen de Soto is one of around 1650 Neolithic burial-ritual monuments that occupy the region of Andalucía. Within the province of Huelva where the Dolmen de Soto stands... and Based on its architectural style, the dolmen is dated to between 3000 and 2500 BCE, It is oriented from east to west, so that the first rays of sun in the equinox move along the passage and shine on the chamber for a few minutes and leading into a subterranean corridor, which is typically orientated east–west. This is the eponymous passage, and it usually merges or connects with a defined burial chamber. In the case of the Dolmen de Soto, its passage and chamber appear to form a continuous gallery

@Paradise Chronicle: Seeing as this is Fergus's first review I have also vetted the article and agree that it is sufficient. It is long enough, its at 2380 characters. I do have just one issue: it should be 4,500 with a comma, not an apostrophe. I have boldly fixed that. One other note, shouldn't it be Andulusia with an S, not a C? I prefer ALT1. I have struck ALT0 as too long. CaptainEek ^{Edits Ho Cap'n!}⚓ 00:00, 25 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry, Andalucia with a c is Spanish. Fixed it, thanks for reviewing. Thanks also for the comma.Paradise Chronicle (talk)

And for the hook, I'll join you with ALT1.Paradise Chronicle (talk) 00:15, 25 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
