Nuraghe in Sardinia (Sardegna). This spectacularly located nuraghe overlooks the coastal area north of Villaputzu. It consists of two towers - possibly the monument was constructed in two phases. The structure rests upon a large rock outcrop. The western tower has a small window which opens to the N-NW. Below the rock with the nuraghe there are heavily overgrown remains of a settlement.
