Ancient Village or Settlement in Balearic Isles (Mallorca / Majorca)
Some 500 metres to the eastern section of the wall of Es Rossells I, hidden in a dense vegetation, there is a huge cluster of talaiotic structures with evidences of having been inhabited from the early iron age (talaiotic period) to roman times. The most prominent structures are a circular building placed over a stone platform, that reaches 3 metres high, and a squared talaiot lost in the vegetation and very difficult to find. Moreover, there are a lot of walls that goes inside the bushes and dense thickets.
A lime kiln placed near the site, partially destroyed it years ago.
The access of this site is even more difficult than that of Es Rossells I, because there is no cleaned entry to it.
