Ses Paisses, Arta - Bronze Age Settlements

Although not as extensive as the ruins at Capocorb Vell, this Bronze Age settlement near Arta is still a significant site and a link with Mallorcans of 3,000 years ago. Most impressive of all is the massive entrance portal, formed from three stone slabs weighing up to eight tonnes each. Inside there are several rooms and an atalaia (watchtower); the entire settlement is surrounded by a Cyclopean drystone wall.
