Nuraghe in Sardinia (Sardegna)

Nuraghe Barula is a complex structure occupying the hilltop South of Santa Maria Coghinas. The easiest approach to the nuraghe is from the West, while immediately North of the nuraghe there is a large cliff which provides extensive view towards the coast. According to M. Maxia the nuraghe could have had up to four towers, but this number seems to be an overestimation. Remains of the main tower and at least one lateral tower are clearly distinguishable.
