    Inside a nuraghe

    Su Nuraxi at Barumini is the UNESCO one, but there are seven thousand of these dry-stone towers and you can walk into many of them alone.

Selected by name and description against bronze age, petroglyph and nuraghe — matched on what we wrote about the experience, never on the name of the town. 7 more terms are declared for this list and have matched nothing yet: megalith, neolithic, dolmen, cromlech, rock art, cave painting, stone ship. That is a gap in the writing rather than a fact about Europe.
