Description

The construction is heavily buried, so much so that only the last part of the central tower stands out on the countryside plan, while the connected structures are barely identifiable, except for a turret S, of which part of the facing remains.

To get an idea of the extent of the external filling, it's enough to observe how the large window of the second floor, originally placed no less than seven meters high, is now elevated only one meter above the ground.

The original structure of the nuraghe may be assumed to be of the transverse addition biturrita type with an intermediate courtyard, with the peculiarity of the rear facing, rarely present in similar types.
