A taula is a Stonehenge-esque stone monument found on the Balearic island of Menorca. Taulas can be up to 3.7 metres high and consist of a vertical pillar with a horizontal stone lying on it. A U-shaped wall often encloses the structure.
Their exact cultural meaning remains unknown, but they probably had religious and/or astronomical purposes. Most of the taulas face south, which seems to suggest some astronomical meaning. Archeologist Michael Hoskin has suggested the taulas may have been part of an ancient healing cult. They are frequently found near talayots.
