.......................... is not a megalithic type.
Answer: C
The one that is not a megalithic type is Topi-kund.
Megalithic burials and memorials are classified by their stone structure. A menhir is a single upright stone; a dolmen is a chamber of upright slabs roofed by a capstone; a cairn circle (printed here as 'Crain circle') is a burial under a heap of stones ringed by a circle of boulders. All three are standard types in Indian megalithic studies.
'Topi-kund' is not a recognised type name. The Kerala megalith it resembles is the topikal or hat-stone, a dome-shaped capstone over a burial; the option bends that name into one that no classification uses, which is why the key marks it as the odd one out.
