description

In contrast to the Domus de Janas of the necropolis of S'Elighe Entosu with numerous ancillary chambers, the burial places of Pedras Serras have a simple floor plan. They consist of an anteroom to which a main chamber adjoins. Only Tomba I has an additional side chamber that is accessible from the main chamber. Tomba II has only one cell, at the back of which there is a niche that can be accessed through a double-framed door.
