I'm looking for interesting megaliths in Southern Spain connected possibly with city of Tartess, which is not found yet. For those who do not fhow I inform that it was a rich city of unknown origin and of many years old. People who know places of interest or books on the topic, please inform me . Thank you.

If you access Stone pages links on megaliths,you will have a good chance of finding what you you are seeking--it will probably be in Spanish.The maps are good.

Submerged megaliths have been found off the southwestern coast of Spain from Gibraltar to Huelva over the last few years.

Tartessos (if it existed, yet to be located) is post-Megalithic. The most likely period for the existence of Tartessos is between the late Bronze Age and the consolidation of Phoenician colonial presence (who claimed to have destroyed it), so around 1300-800 BCE , some time after Megalithism is abandoned (the periods of the late Bronze and the Atlantic Iron Age maybe). There's a rich "Tartessian Orientalizing" culture (most likely influenced by Phoenicians but very local anyhow) in the southern Iberian Iron Age. Their typical monuments are more like obelisks and statues - but I'm not sure if they are still in situ or have been moved to museums (most likely the second)
