Dantooine: Stone Block

2106 2837, elevation 21. This odd structure of unknown function is a cubic block of 15x15x15 with four golden domes on top of it. The structure overlooks a body of water and a Dantari marker is nearby, seemingly warding off the access to the structure.

The structure material is sandstone, and the structure shape suggest that it was built by the sandstone linear culture. However, there presence of the four golden domes, similar in shape, size and texture to those left by the Golden Dome Culture are intriguing. The combination of those two elements suggest that one culture borrowed from the other one.

Dantooine: Seven Arches

1316 2967, elevation 6. This site is surprising on several counts.

First, it is only the second site of the Sandstone Linear Culture on the planet. Second, it uses both natural landscape and human engineering (road).

The site consists of seven unevenly separated arches positioned over the road, on a length of 86x.
