Six Copper Age statue menhirs have been discovered in the vicinity of Arco, Trentino, in the Italian Alps.[1] They are similar in style to other anthropomorphic stelae made across Europe between the 4th and 3rd millennium BCE.[2]
Arco I, discovered in 1989, is 215 cm high limestone stela.[1] It depicts a heavily-armed, apparently male figure with seven daggers, three axes, three halberds and an ornamental necklace.[3][4]
