It is made up of three units: the actual <strong>well<\/strong>, perfectly circular and preceded by a small vestibule; a <strong>first atrium<\/strong> with moderate paving compromised by the search for water in the 1980s; a <strong>second atrium<\/strong>, with rectangular layout and larger measurements, it too paved, located at a lower height of around half a metre compared to the first one.<\/p>\n<p>The well, with no stairway and<strong> originally with tholos roof<\/strong>, was produced in isodomum and involves twelve perfectly square and smooth conical stones. A groove carved on the vestibule floor and overflow function, makes it easier for the water to exit the well and direct it into a gutter which crosses the entire monument, until it flows outside. The temple\u2019s main facade with \u201cdovetail\u201d ashlars which show, on the visible facade, an \u201cashlar\u201d decoration is particularly noteworthy. The sophisticate building technique shows significant similarities to the Predio Canopoli holy well and the Niedda a Perfugas holy spring. At the centre of <strong>two excavation digs<\/strong> between 1991-1992, the site was <strong>populated between the Nuragic age and the Byzantine period<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Leaving from Nulvi, take the trunk road SS 127 towards Martis, then turn right after about 5 kilometres, following the road signs. After a kilometre of dirt track, you\u2019ll come to the Irru archaeological site.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":26484,"template":"","tipologia":[1006],"categoria":[1025],"tematica":[1029],"class_list":["post-29588","place","type-place","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","tipologia-pozzo-sacro-en","categoria-archaeological-site","tematica-archeology"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v20.13 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Irru Holy Well - Idese<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/idese.cultura.gov.it\/en\/place\/irru-holy-well\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_GB\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Irru Holy Well - Idese\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"The archaeological site of Irru, in the municipality of Nulvi, covers an extensive settlement including Nuraghes, a village, burials and a holy well.
