We have characterized petrographically rocks which are constructed the tholoi of La Pastora and Matarrubilla in the prehistoric site of Valencina de la Concepción. So, there are three types of rocks: Paleozoic quartzarenite, granite and Neogene calcareous sandstone; each with a specific use in the architecture of the monuments. Furthermore, the chamber of the tholos of Matarrubilla is occupied by a massive block of gypsum carved as a shallow trough. This characterization will allow comparison with natural nearby outcrops.
