Tomba dei giganti di Pascaredda

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

Tomba dei giganti di Pascaredda is a prehistoric burial monument with two curved walls made of ten large granite slabs forming an exedra and leading to a rectangular burial chamber. The structure displays characteristic dolmenic architecture, where massive stones were stacked dry against each other.

Built between 1700 and 1400 BC, during the Middle to Recent Bronze Age, the tomb belongs to the Nuragic culture's collective burials. It was excavated and restored in 1998 by archaeologist Angela Antona. The chamber still lies under its earthen tumulus.

The exedra, an 18.40 m arc of granite slabs, was the space for funeral rites; the lower half of the two-part central stele survives, with a rounded doorway at its base. Inside the chamber, a stone shelf in the apse probably held offerings to the dead.

The site is located about three kilometers from Calangianus near Mount Deu and is reached via a path branching off from State Road 127 toward Tempio Pausania. Visitors should wear sturdy shoes as the terrain is uneven and access may depend on weather conditions.

The inner walls of the passage tilt slightly inward, creating an increasingly narrow effect as you approach the chamber. This subtle slant may have been an intentional design feature to enhance a sense of solemnity.
