Talayotic houses and covered rooms


In this area there are three underground chambers with columns and flagstones forming the roof. These are connected to an inner courtyard and closed rooms designated to the lodgings and housework.

Recent excavations have brought to light remains of the end of the talayotic period, as well as Carthaginian and Roman amphorae, table and cooking services and also pieces of Islamic pottery. This shows the way different people lived at different periods till the 13th century.
