This is a passage tomb from the Middle Neolithic period that was visited by Pere Bosch-Gimpera and Lluís Pericot in the summer of 1932. However, it was Isidre Macau who first published a diagram and photograph of the dolmen in 1934. August Panyella and Miquel Tarradell directed the first archaeological excavation in 1942, which made it possible to document several fragments of bell-shaped pottery. Isidre Macau, Miquel Cura, and Josep Alsina reported the discovery of stone axes near the dolmen. The materials exhumed during the excavation point to the Copper Age (bell-shaped vase). However, based on its architectural style, Tarrús (2002) places it chronologically in the first phase of the Alt Empordà - Roussillon passage tombs, that is, the first half of the 4th millennium BC. It was restored and accessibility was upgraded in 1983.
