Nuraghe Losa is a complex prehistoric building in Sardinia, shaped like a tholos tomb with a triangular central structure. Its central tower was built in the 14th century BC, while the surrounding walls and towers date from the 13th century BC. On the west side, a turreted wall links to the main structure. The entire complex is enclosed by a wider wall, which once contained a village of huts and additional buildings added during the late Punic, imperial Roman, late Roman and high Middle Ages periods. This layered history makes Nuraghe Losa a rare site where Bronze Age architecture meets later occupations, offering a tangible sense of the island’s long, stratified past.
