The French ministry of culture lists the following numbers of megalithic monuments:
In the Netherlands megaliths were created with erratics from glaciers in the northeastern part of the country.[10] These megaliths are locally known as hunebedden (hunebeds) and are usually dolmens. Parts of 53 of these hunebeds are known to exist on their original locations.[11]
The different hunebeds are differentiated by province and number. "D" means Drenthe, "G" means Groningen, "O" means Overijssel and "F" means Friesland.
There are also many known hunebeds which disappeared due to different types of activities.[12] They are usually referred to with the number of a nearby existing hunebed and differentiated by lower case letters.
