Reprint from the information board:
This site dating from the post-Talayotic period (650-123 BC) lies above a series of clay deposits. The circular structure, which has degraded to a large extent, is built from large blocks of stone. It has a wall which divides the structure along its whole length, creating two spaces, although it has not been possible to establish the location of the access point. The construction is 20 m long and 18.1 m wide, while the walls are 1.6 m thick. In the area surrounding the site, handmade and wheel-turned pottery from the Roman and Punic periods has been found.
