Saint-Sernin-sur-Rance

SAINT-SERNIN-SUR-RANCE Aveyron, France.

At the Camp de l'Andel near Boutaran (where a menhir-statue was found in 1961), the ruins of a small building of dry stone construction was excavated in 1962-63. It consisted of two adjoining rooms and was probably a rustic temple built near a spring, perhaps as early as the middle of the 1st c. B.C.
