The Giants' Tomb of Aidu is a Nuragic megalithic tomb located south of the nuraghe of the same name. The elongated burial chamber (roughly West-East orientation) with some of the capstones survived, as well as part of the exedra. Two phases of construction can be distinguished in the tomb - in the second one the rectilinear exedra was transformed into a curvilinear one.
