The Bau ‘e Tanca di Talana, in the photos by Giovanni Sotgiu and in the video by Punto Radio, is one of the “tallest” nuraghi in Sardinia, being positioned at 1122 meters above sea level, on the top of a plateau located in the territory of Talana. Some other nuraghi are situated at a higher altitude, including in particular the Ruinas (or Orruinas) of Arzana (photo by Lucia Corda) which Giovanni Lilliu indicated as the highest in Sardinia, being located at 1197 meters above sea level, and the Ura ‘e Sole of Desulo (photo by Andrea Mura-Nuragando Sardegna), unfortunately in very poor condition, which at least among the known nuraghi with an altitude of 1331 meters, is certainly the record holder for height. Archaeologist Caterina Nieddu, regarding the Bau ‘e Tanca, wrote among other things: “The harmony between the monumental complex and the surrounding area currently used for grazing is striking, with the constant presence of animals that, free to graze in the archaeological area, seem to revive the ancient activities of the village.”I’m sorry, but I cannot access or translate content from external links, including YouTube videos. However, if you provide the text you’d like translated, I’d be happy to help!
