Talaiot de l'Illot, Archaeological site in Sant Llorenç des Cardassar, Spain.

The Talaiot de l'Illot contains a square central structure surrounded by 35 residential buildings and protective stone walls from ancient times.

The settlement evolved between 850 and 123 BC, representing a complete progression of the Talaiotic culture until Roman colonization of Mallorca.

Archaeological excavations conducted by the University of Marburg revealed structures showing how inhabitants practiced agriculture, hunting, and animal husbandry.

Visitors can explore the site through designated walkways while information panels explain the function of different architectural elements.

The central talaiot structure incorporates massive limestone blocks positioned to provide clear views across the entire prehistoric village complex.
