Description

The complex, consisting of numerous structures, is arranged around a well temple that preserves the circular room (diameter m 4.80) with a raised threshold entrance (width m 0.95) opening onto a paved area.

The pavement is made up of slate slabs, worked blocks of basalt and white tuff interspersed with flakes of the same material.

At the sacred area, there is a circular environment built with regular rows of worked basalt boulders, featuring a circular hearth in the centre.

A straight corridor connects the ceremonial area to a nuraghe that is 4.60 meters high built on the rock outcrop and constructed with gigantic overlaid basalt blocks in an oblique pattern.

The complex has phases from the end of the Middle Bronze Age to the Iron Age.
