Above Urzulei are the giants' tombs of S'Arena. The two burials are about fifteen meters long and the one further north is slightly longer than the first. The tombs date back to different periods (1500.c.-1000bc.) and are made of local limestone boulders and, sometimes, granite.

The information signs were unfortunately faded or defective, but still worth seeing because one wonders how the people created the facilities back then.
