The large site, a nearly complete village, has been investigated by Professor Bill Waldren.
[2] Whether accidentally or intentionally, the four talayots on the site are laid out roughly South-West to North-East,[4] perhaps similar to the alignment of Capocorb Vell.
The site referred to as "the maze" was likely occupied by a small group of Beaker people, and more extensively during the iron age, as well as the Roman period.
During the copper age, up until about 1700BC, the sanctuary would have offered a view of the Southern Cross framed by a two mountains, and the Time Team[1] speculate that this is of central importance to the site.
The Southern Cross was not fully visible from 1700BC onward, and radiocarbon finds indicate that the site was unoccupied for about 400 years until 1300BC.
