The nuraghe model, made of trachyte, comes from the village-sanctuary of Abini (Teti-Nu). The truncated-conical shaft is decorated with vertical incisions that recall the brackets supporting the terrace placed on top of the nuraghi. The slightly concave top may form the bottom of a hollow that is not currently preserved. The find is dated to the Final Bronze-Early Iron Age, between the 12th and 8th centuries B.C., a period when nuraghi were no longer built but, represented in stone carvings and bronze objects, constituted an identity symbol with strong sacred and ideological significance.
