Trebalúger Talayot

Description

A Talayotic period settlement (1000-700 B.C.) in Trebalúger was a spectacularly large talaiyot; it is 28 metres in diameter at its widest point. It has an elliptical layout and was built on a high rocky outcrop on the site of an earlier structure from the Naviforme period dating from 1350 B.C., with the bases of the pillars still preserved inside. At the front of the monument, near the entrance, you can see the remains of a ramp that led up to the top of the talaiyot. Around the outside you can see the walls of a polygonal structure, also from the Talayotic period, which has been damaged by the lime kiln built over it at a later date.
