a village of France, department of Morbihan, in the arrondissement and 18 miles S.E. of L'Orient. About three-fourths of a mile from the village is the great Celtic monument of Carnac, consisting of 11 lines of rude granitic blocks set end on end, forming 10 avenues with a curved row of 18 stones touching at its extremities the two outside rows. There are said to be several thousands of these stones, none exceeding 18 feet in height; and a very large proportion are cubical masses not more than 3 feet high. The object and the epoch of the construction of this extraordinary monument are alike unknown.
