This work uses ideas of Foucault, Clastres, and Lévi-Strauss to develop an approach to the conceptualization and symbolic use of space and time which legitimized and made possible the construction of megalíthic monuments. The megalithic burial pattern is contrasted with those of Mesolithic and earlier Neolithic communities. While the Mesolithic/Neolithic pattern is seen as facilitating the social practice of foragers or shifting agriculturalists, the megalithic ideology would have been developed by settled peasant farmers. Specific types of megalithic monuments are seen as expressing different ideological representations of social power.
