Nuraghe Loddi

The Nuraghe Loddi is an archaeological site of Sulcis Iglesiente located in the territory of Carbonia, in a landscape that alternates rural areas and hills typical of south-western Sardinia. Nuraghe Loddi represents a testimony of the nuragic civilization, inserted in a widespread network of settlements that deeply characterize the territory of Sulcis.
Unlike other more monumental sites, the Nuraghe Loddi stands out above all for its territorial trace value, useful for understanding the capillary distribution of prehistoric settlements. Its position suggests a function linked to the control of the surrounding areas and the management of local movements, typical elements of the nuragic communities. The site thus helps to outline a broader and more realistic picture of the ancient organization of Carbonia territory, where small and large settlements coexisted in an articulated system.
