The nuragic well sanctuary ( Italian Pozzo sacro ) Su Lumarzu is located in Rebeccu, a shepherd's village near Bonorva in the province of Sassari in Sardinia . Rebeccu is located east of Bonorva above the road to Foresta di Burgos on a limestone spur .

The nuragic fountain temple is located in the middle of a wild garden landscape and is a modest building made of basalt blocks with a 3 × 6 m paved forecourt. This has platforms on the side. Behind the high, ashlar facade that supports the slope is a small vaulted well. The water flows through a channel over the edge of the collecting basin, which is almost 1.5 m in diameter, carved from a large basalt plate.
