Talaiot de na Pol

Talaiot de na Pol

The talaiots are prehistoric monuments in Mallorca and Menorca, built between 3000 and 2500 years ago by the Talayotic communities

The word talaiot is the popular term that has traditionally been used to refer to these monuments scattered by the hundreds throughout the landscape of Mallorca and Menorca. The word talaiot is an augmentative of the word "talaia" which means watchtower or tower. The talaiots also give their names to the people who built them, the Talaiotics. The human communities that we know today as talaiotic lived in Mallorca and Menorca approximately between 3000 and 2500 years ago.

The function of the talaiots is, in general, unknown since very few talaiots have been the object of an archaeological intervention. It has been proposed that they could be community spaces for food processing and redistribution or also meeting places for a small group of the community. We must also take into account its defensive nature and visual control of the territory. For example, the na Pol talaiot would have direct visibility over the talaia mountains to the west and the Son Corb and Son Jordi mountains to the north; both with a wide visual domain of the coast. During September 2020, a team of archaeologists carried out an adaptation, conservation and documentation campaign that has made it possible to define the structures that make up the site: the circular talaiot, which is about 12,50 m in diameter and currently it is about 3 m high, it is built from a wall of about 3 m wide formed by two concentric courses of large blocks of miocene limestone filled with small stones.

This wall gives rise to an internal chamber of about 26,40 m 2 , in the middle of which there is a large central polyolithic column. It is an isolated talaiot that does not seem to have been integrated into a village. Perimeter wall around the talaiot that forms a second ring where two radial rooms are observed and a cave to the east that goes below the talaiot. Although the final objective of the project is to carry out a conservation and adaptation intervention for visitors of all the structures, provisionally, the access to this cave has been blocked to avoid further damage and waste dumping.
