If we start from the village of Maus de Salas, we turn right and see the first megalith located next to the dam's gate, we will find the Anta Casiña da Moura. A complete example of a dolmen with a polygonal chamber made up of seven slabs that support another large slab. This megalith was dismantled and moved from its original location to the current one due to the construction of the reservoir.
It is located on the other side of the reservoir gate on a small knoll from where you can see an excellent panoramic view of the surroundings. The structure of the chamber is polygonal and is made up of seven slabs covered by a large monolithic piece. There are no visible traces of the corridor. As for the remains found during the excavation, they are mainly fragments of bell-shaped pottery with the typical decoration of lines and points.
