Tomba dei giganti di Pascaredda, Nuragic burial monument in Calangianus, Sardinia, Italy

The tomb features two curved walls made of ten large granite slabs forming an 18.40-meter exedra leading to a rectangular funeral chamber.

The burial structure dates from the Middle to Late Bronze Age and represents a typical example of dolmenic-orthostatic architecture from ancient Sardinia.

The central stele contains a portal at its base, directing to the funeral chamber where offerings were placed on stone shelves during burial ceremonies.

The site is located three kilometers from Calangianus near Mount Deu, accessible through a path starting from State Road 127 toward Tempio Pausania.

The funeral corridor extends 12.50 meters in length and maintains twelve irregular granite slabs covering the passage, with walls slightly tilting inward.
