In Sardinia the traveler encounters archaeological sites at every turn, in the article on Nuragic culture only the most important sights are summarized in a table, and each summary is subjective.
Further information can be found here, with a focus on sites from the prenuraghic period. The table can be sorted according to the occurrence of menhirs and dolmens, necropolises also go back a long way to the prenuraghic period, the typical "giant graves" often date from the nuragic period.
Protonuraghi do not yet have the standardized construction plan of the later nuraghi, but are rather polygonal and criss-crossed by a corridor, life probably took place on the extended upper floor. The classic Tholosnuraghen follow a largely uniform construction plan, in the middle there is a central room with a false vault, a staircase leads up to the left of the entrance within the wall wall. Since hundreds of classic Tholosnuraghen can be found in Sardinia, the list is limited to exceptional specimens. Later, complex Nuraghen with several towers were built, surrounding walls form an inner courtyard.
Nuragic villages with round huts and rectangular temples only appeared in the last phase. Well sanctuaries were built in various phases. In the arid Mediterranean climate, the supply of water was of vital importance, so springs were carefully drawn and the object of worship.
