8: Sacred spring Su Tempiesu – Orune

8- The Sacred Spring of Su Tempiesu, in Orune, is one of the 31 monuments proposed to UNESCO as symbols of the grandiose Nuragic civilization, its history, and its vast material testimonies.The temple was built in isodomic work, meaning with blocks of basalt masterfully squared and shaped as needed with appropriate inclination. The rocks present in the surrounding territory are predominantly composed of schists or granites, and the volcanic rock used was transported to the site from rather distant locations, probably from the area of Dorgali.
