Nuraghe s’Omu ‘e s’Orcu

The “Sa domu’e s’orcu” nuraghe emerges in the vicinity of the residental area of Jerzu, on the “Su Concali” hill that dominates the Pardu valley. Situated 422 meters above sea level, the site is not in a good conservation status. The base of the principal tower is built almost entirely on a rick, from which comes an access corridor with a staircase, of which eleven steps remain. The planimetry is not recognisable due to collapses and clandestine excavations. Attached to the main tower there is a rectangular structure built of thick masonry. The site is made of blocks and pieces of local shale. The nurgahe was build and frequented from 1500 B.C. to 900 B. C. (Middle Bronze - Early Iron Age).
