Ma BC 14 is located 4.13km southeast (bearing 139°) of Mets Mantash village, adjacent to Ma AR 14 (map quad B1f).

Topography

This substantial cluster of cromlechs is set on the western slope of a small hill.

General Description

The cluster consists of more than 20 standard and spiral cromlechs oriented along a broad band running north-south across the slope. Many burials are very poorly preserved due to erosion and rock fall.

Features & Materials

No surface materials.

Feature 1: is an excellent example of the spiral cromlech form. 5.1m in diameter, the spiral begins on the south side, curling in two visible circles into the center of the burial where three medium-sized capstones mark the central chamber.
