Is there any evidence that any megalithic structure involves worshiping the dead or ancestors ?


"Worshipping" is probably rather a loaded word, given the difficulties in proving preghistoric ritual practices, but it's pretty safe to say that megalithic structures were involved in a practice of "respecting" or more prosaically "providing a post-death containment facility for" the dead or ancestors.
