Muraglia di Monte Ossoni, Archeological site in Castelsardo, Italy.
The Monte Ossoni wall stretches for 60 meters along a trapezoidal-shaped trachytic hill, reaching an elevation of 348 meters above sea level.
The megalithic wall and its small village date back to the Copper Age, between 2900 and 2200 BC, featuring construction techniques from prehistoric populations.
Archaeological excavations in 1979 by Alberto Moravetti revealed ceramic materials indicating extended occupation during the Monte Claro and Bell Beaker cultures.
The site is managed by the Superintendency of Archaeology and Fine Arts of Sassari and Nuoro provinces, with access available for visitors.
The wall structure incorporates large polyhedral trachytic blocks arranged in regular rows with sub-horizontal laying planes, demonstrating polygonal construction methods.
