SolarMegalith visited on 4th Sep 2011 - their rating: Cond: 3 Amb: 4 Access: 4 One of the monuments in Bortigali which I recorded for my BA dissertation.
Protonuraghe Berre is located between Bortigali and Silanus, north of the SS129 road. It is an example of a corridor-type nuraghe (protonuraghe) which survived in relatively good condition. It is elliptical in shape with 16 x 11.50m dimensions. The corridor survived, it leads to a chamber with niche.
