Necropolis of Sant’Andrea Priu
In the fertile Campo di S. Lucia, on the left, a road leads to the rural church of S. Lucia and, immediately after, to the exceptional complex of the grandiose domus de janas. Excavated in a high trachyte wall, used as tombs between 2000 and 3000 years B.C. and as a rock church in early Christianity, they consist of a series of fascinating hypogeic complexes with burial chambers and places of worship; the largest of all is the so-called Tomb of the Cape, which has 18 rooms. On the plateau above are other small domus and a trachytic rock dug by man (or shaped by nature) in the form of a bull.
