Nuraghe
In the town of Arzachena, there is an important archaeological site where the architectural feature is the presence of an ancient Nuraghe.
Nuraghi are stone constructions in the shape of a cone without a point, present with different concentrations throughout Sardinia. They are unique and representative of the Nuragic civilisation. Today, about seven thousand remain standing, scattered all over the island, on average one every 3 km², strongly distinguishing the Sardinian landscape.
The nuraghe La Prisgiona is a nuragic archaeological site (occupied from the 14th to the 9th century BC), located in the beautiful valley of Capichera, in the municipality of Arzachena, the site is only 30 minutes from Villa Khepri.
The complex consists of an ancient nuraghe and a village of about 90-100 huts, spread over five hectares.
Due to its large size and the number of buildings, the site is considered unique in the Gallura nuragic context. The tomb of the giants of Coddu Vecchiu is also located nearby.
