The tomb of the giants of Imbertighe lies just outside the town of Borore.
Experts who uncovered it between the XIX and the start of the XX century found it almost intact and described its long tomb with funeral chamber and wide exedra.
The exedra currently preserves only the wings in basalt blocks, while nothing remains of the funeral chamber. However, the monument preserves its charm thanks to the beautiful, curved stele, whose careful workmanship catches the eye.
The monolithic stele is 3.65 m high in an almost elliptical shape, with the typical flat relief frame which cuts off in the lower part, where it joins with the monolith base.
The facade is split into three parts: the base, smooth and thicker preserves the quadrangular door with rounded upper corners in the centre; the trapezoidal middle frame and the upper lunette separated by the transversal listel.
About 200 metres to the east of the tomb, you’ll find the Nuraghe of the same name, but only a few rows of blocks have survived.
From the country road SP 66 at the entrance to the Borore turn right towards Sedilo, after passing the railway bridge, turn right at the tourist road sign. Follow this road which will take you near the tomb.
