SO NA CAÇANA
Read moreThe remains at So na Caçana tend to be considered those of a group of religious sanctuaries (a taula and two talayots) linked to several surrounding talayotic villages. However, there are indications that the site may have been a village in its own right: a few dwellings, two stone circles and a necropolis comprising a large number of funerary hypogeums. The site was occupied right up to Roman times, as demonstrated by the archaeological finds in some of its monuments.
SON CATLAR
Read moreCovering an area of 42,420 m², the ancient talayotic village of Son Catlar, located on the road between Ciutadella and Son Saura, was occupied until Roman times (123 B.C.) and features circular talayots (the site's oldest structures) and a cyclopean wall almost 900 metres long. The latter is the only prehistoric wall preserved in its entirety in which the talayotic construction system and the later square towers attached to it can be distinguished.
TALATÍ DE DALT
Read moreTalatí de Dalt is one of the island's most remarkable prehistoric villages. It is home to a number of monuments: a talayot with an elliptical plan and truncated cone-shaped profile, a taula enclosure, a housing area and a number of excavated caves. A column and its capital rest on the side of the central T, probably because they fell off by accident. During excavations, several ritual objects were found here, including the bony remains of lambs and goats, and amphorae for wine.
NECRÓPOLIS DE CALES COVES
Read moreNestling in the cliffs of Cales Coves, which form two coves, are some ninety caves carved out of the rock: this is Menorca's most important Talayotic necropolis. While the earliest caves date back to the Bronze Age, the most recent date back to the Iron Age (when funerary rites were combined with cremation). The objects found here are now housed in the Menorca Museum. During Roman times, the site was the object of religious pilgrimages.
