This group – consisting of 2 tomba di gigante, a nuraghe and village around it, a dolmen and a domus de janus – is just west of Sedillo, and is signposted from the town.

I was rather excited about what we’d find here, and in the vicinity, and hoped that there would be someone around to ask ..... there are 3 huts which look distinctly like a visitors’ centre, ticket hut, and toilets, respectively, but not a soul in sight. No notices either, but I assume an entrance fee is payable.

From the parking area, the two tombs are to the south, overlooking Lake Omodeo, the nuraghe and village to the north, but the domus de janus and dolmen remain a mystery to us.

My notes said that the domus de janus – Ispiluncas – consisting of 34 tombs – is “on the slopes of the hill where the nuraghe rises” and my Google Earth map showed it on the slope below the info/ticket huts. I had a grid reference for the dolmen – the wrong grid reference! – and a description of its location “the monument is found to the right of the nuraghic complex”.
