A Roda stone circle
A Roda is a Bronze Age stone circle located in the municipality of Barreiros, in Galicia, Spain. It is the first structure of this kind —a henge, an almost circular or oval structure consisting of a hollow surrounded by a ditch and an embankment— to be discovered and investigated on the Iberian Peninsula, although similar structures have since been identified in other parts of Galicia.
