Nuraghen sind einzigartige prähistorische Steintürme, die nur auf Sardinien gefunden werden. Sie wurden während der Nuraghenkultur (ca. 1900–730 v. Chr.) errichtet und dienten vermutlich als Wohnstätten, Befestigungen oder Kultorte. Jeder Nuraghe, auch Sas Seddas, ist ein Zeugnis der komplexen Gesellschaft dieser Epoche.
