Naveta des Tudons, Menorca, Spain

The Naveta des Tudons is a pre-Talaiotic funeral building in use from 1200 to 750 BC. When it was excavated and restored in the 1950s, it was found to contain the remains of at least 100 graves with their respective funerary belongings (bronze bracelets, bone buttons and pottery). The name naveta' - or 'little boat’ in Catalan - comes from the fact that this building resembles an upside-down boat. It is one of the most famous monuments on Menorca and as such has become one of the island’s cultural icons.
