Torralba - Nuraghe Santu Antine

Torralba - Nuraghe Santu Antine
In the region of the Meilogu exist so many Bronze Age towers that it is called the Valle dei Nuraghi. The most impressive of these about 30 nuraghi is the Nuraghe Santu Antine, locally known as Sa Domu de su Re (= House of the King).

The nuraghe has a central tower, that still is about 17 m high. It was probably nearly 24 m high, when the tower was erected around 1800 BC. Three towers positioned around the central one. The entire building a triangular shape with rounded angles.

Corridors and stairs connect rooms inside the construction.
