Nuraghe Ena Ortu or Sassu

 Indirizzo: 07044 Ittiri (SS)

The nuraghe, characterised by a complex plan, is located close to Nuraghe Majore. Built with blocks of local trachyte, it has a bilobed structure: a bastion characterised by two towers was added to the fortified tower, whose tholos of the first floor is still intact. It is still possible to see the structure of the courtyard. Around the nuraghe there are the remains of a few huts which, probably, can be dated back to the Nuragic age and a large standing stone which attests to the presence of man in this territory before the Nuragic age.
