Nuraghe Sa Serra de Is Perdas
Nuraghe Sa Serra de Is Perdas in Eastern Sardinia is a fascinating archaeological site and a complex example of the Bronze Age Nuragic civilization.
Location
Nuraghe Sa Serra de Is Perdas is an outstanding testament to the Nuragic civilization that developed in Sardinia during the Bronze Age. These impressive stone towers, often considered the highest architectural expressions of megalithism in the Mediterranean after the Egyptian Pyramids, continue to astonish with their construction and function.
Beyond the complex nuraghe itself, the archaeological site also encompasses the remains of an extensive village of huts. This makes Is Perdas a unique place, offering profound insights into the life and society of the Nuragic people in the Bronze Age.
