Sacred Well of Sa Testa

TempleEuropeItalyc. 1,100 BCENuragic

Nuragic water sanctuary near Olbia built of worked schist and granite: a paved circular courtyard leads through a trapezoidal vestibule down 17 corbel-roofed steps to a spring chamber under a tholos vault up to 6.8 m high. Finds include a juniper-wood female statuette in Greek-Oriental style; proposed lunar alignments are unverifiable since the tholos top is incomplete.
