Ruins of this mixed-type nuraghe with elements of a corridor nuraghe (protonuraghe) and classic tholos nuraghe are located NE of Calangianus. The tholos chamber is resting upon natural rocks, the walls are also constructed with use of natural rock formations.
The site is located in southern part of Laicheddu area, around it there are fantastic rock formations, among them a large arc.
