Nuraghe Mannu, Bronze Age archaeological site in Dorgali, Italy
The Nuraghe Mannu stands on a limestone plateau 200 meters above sea level, overlooking the Gulf of Orosei and Cala Fuili beach.
The settlement around Nuraghe Mannu remained active from 1200 BCE through the sixth century CE, spanning Bronze Age, Roman, and Byzantine periods.
Archaeological excavations revealed numerous artifacts including Nuragic pottery, Roman coins, metal objects, and Byzantine amphorae with Christian symbols.
Visitors can access the central tower through a trapezoidal corridor featuring twelve preserved steps and observe two overhead niches in the chamber walls.
The site demonstrates the transition between Nuragic and Roman cultures through its architectural elements, including circular huts and Roman strip-building structures.
