The site was characterized by a structure that included numerous huts of different sizes, defensive walls, and a three-lobed nuraghe. The location, (from which a very large area can be controlled), the considerable size and architectural complexity of the village are elements that lead back to a place of exceptional archaeological interest.
The toponym, attributed to the word SCOLCA from the Judicial period, determines an organism aimed at military control of a territory, so it can be considered as an important indicator of the continuity of use of the site in medieval times.
