A Megalithomania exploration with HD drone footage of Torre d'en Galmés, a Talyotic site with Taulas (t-shaped pillars) and megalithic construction on the Balearic island of Menorca. It dates to the early Bronze Age and a statue of Egyptian architect Imhotep (who built Saqqara) shows that a cult of him was evident in this part of the world. Hugh Newman visits the site with Neil McDonald of http://www.megalithictours.com and a few megalithomaniacs in October 2016 and they notice the similarities to sites in Malta and Gozo, as well as Gobekli Tepe in southeast Turkey. See video about the great 'Taula' T-Pillars here: https://youtu.be/TiKt9eb6Vbo and another one about the Naveta boat burials here: https://youtu.be/YC06Pr-ruhs.
