The biggest - central - the stele up to 4 meters struck the entrance. Inside the tomb are clearly rectangular layout. Dimensions burial chambers range from 5 to 15 meters in length and 1 to 2 meters in height.

Similar tombs tile type can be seen in the town of Osona, Sortali, Lolgi and Peskaredda. And around the city Dorgali, Goron, and Santo Biatsu Codd Vecchio are better tiled tomb - they are processed and the central stele is rounded on top and has a picture on the front surface.
