AB In live megalithic monuments in the Paris Basin, starting with the Neolithic, massive reorganizations were effected involving displacements and even removals of orthostates. Sepulchral use was marked by periods of interruption that might be associated, but not necessarily so, with the deposit of "underlayers,” generally thin, but fairly thick at times. Primary or secondary burials might be intermingled, or could occur successively in relation to the aforementioned “underlayers”. At times, an entire layer might be virtually entirely eliminated on this occasion. On two of these sites, it has been able to be proven that heavy “cover slabs” were only set in place once the burial process had terminated, in a gesture of permanent closure: prior to their installation, only a lightweight, water-tight cover has been present. Although permanently closed, our megaliths continued to be frequented for a quite a while... until a second "condemnation" occurred that, albeit monumental, was truly destructive in character and associated with a definitive abandonment.
