Monumens celtiques, ou recherches sur le culte des pierres, précédées d'une notice sur les Celtes et sur les Druides

Jacques Cambry, 1805. Johanneau, Paris.

An antiquarian study of standing stones that opens with a chapter on the "Temple de Carnac" and reads the rows as a Celtic temple bound up with the druids' cult of stones. It gave the Celtic interpretation its strongest push.
