Coddu Vecchju Giants' Tomb
Tomba dei giganti di Coddu Vecchju
A Nuragic giants' tomb in Sardinia, where a 4-meter-high arched stone stele stands in front of a semicircular wall; one of the island's most representative Bronze Age sites.
The giants' tomb is a Bronze Age collective burial. In front of it, a semicircular stone wall encloses a forecourt, and at its center stands a single carved stone stele about 4 meters high, with a small door at its base symbolizing the passage to the underworld. There are several sites around Arzachena. A combined ticket allows visits to Nuraghe La Prisgiona and the Li Muri necropolis. Tickets cost about €5–10. Opening hours are longer in summer and shorter in winter.
