Researchers will search for burial remains that have been preserved without alterations, a finding that would allow, for the first time, the study of a Majorcan hypogeum using scientific methodology.</p>]]></description>

This September, the team of archaeologists from the Son Fornés archaeological museum has focused their efforts on the enclosure located just behind the estate houses. A site, halfway between <a href="https://en.arabalears.cat/society/would-you-buy-some-talaiots-in-montuiri-they-are-selling-them-those-of-s-hort-sabor_1_5837351.html">the Sabor talaiots</a> and the large talayots already known on the estate. There, what was initially known as the "new" talayot has begun to reveal its best-kept secrets. For now, neither large stones, nor round.</p>]]></description>
