    A stone row (also stone alignment )or an improvised anti-tankmodern obstacles line(dragon teeth)

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stone_row

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dragon...fortification)



    Could be also an ancient version of modern anti tank defense "dragon teeth) some type of "Cheval de Frise" obstacle:

    Maybe in the Spanish version you can see something more similar in an image:

    https://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caballos_de_Frisia

    Or maybe some type of not so ancient or ancient way to mark a border...

    They are a lot of options.

    I am not an expert, but I think it is difficult to know with so little data if something like this is 5000 years ago or 50 years ago.

    It could be anything, from an authentic megalithic monument to a separation of mountain pastures between two "enemy" neighboring areas.

    Knowing how the line is oriented could give some more clue, or knowing if there are nearby burials.

    ¿What do you think they are?

    They were probably made for religious purposes.
