Giants' grave
Giants' grave, or tomba di giganti, is the name given by local people and archaeologists to a type of Sardinian megalithic gallery grave built during the Bronze Age.
A stone cairn lies over the burial chamber itself. Some examples have a cup-shaped entrance similar to the Court Cairn tombs of Ireland.
