Megalĭthus (-i, m.) (e Graecis vocabulis μέγας 'magnus' + λίθος 'lapis') monumentum ad megalithismum relatum et uno aut variis lapidibus ingentis magnitudinis formatum est, qui ab hominibus Aevo Praehistorico sine lithocolla genere erecti sunt. Quamvis sensu lato vocabulum quodvis genus aedificationum quae per totum orbem terrarum in dissimilibus historicis temporibus sparsae sint designare possit, eius scientificus sensus exactus solum ad monumenta per Neolithicum, Chalcolithicum aut aliquamdo per Aetatem Aeneam, secundum regiones, erecta refert.
