Typical stone monument of the Talayotic culture. The process involved raising a vertical stone, possibly using a ramp of earth and stones to place a horizontal stone on top. These enclosures are found in large Talayotic villages and are thought to have had a religious function, possibly related to rituals involving fire, wine and animal offerings to the divinities. The vertical stone of the taula can exceed 10,000 kg, indicating the great effort and community participation necessary for its construction.
