Un '''nuraga''' (plural en italiano, ''nuraghi''; en sardo nuraghe; en español nuragas) es el principal tipo de edificio [[Megalitismo|megalítico]] que se puede encontrar en [[Cerdeña]], remontándose a años anteriores al 1000 adC. Actualmente se ha convertido en el símbolo de Cerdeña y su cultura distintiva.

The typical nuraghe is situated in a panoramic spot and has the shape of a truncated conical [[tower]] resembling a [[Beehive tomb|beehive]]. The structure has no foundations and stands only by virtue of the weight of its stones, which may weigh as much as several tons. Some nuraghes are more than 20 metres in height. Today, there are more than 8,000 nuraghes still extant in Sardinia, although it has been estimated that they once numbered more than 30,000. Nuraghes are most prevalent in the northwest and south-central parts of the island <ref>encyclopedia britannica, article 'italy'</ref>.
[[Image:Inside_su_nurraxi_1.png|left|thumb|''Su Nuraxi''. Inside the central tower. The man here is 1.80 m.]] There is a similar type of structure which has a corridor or a system of corridors. Some authors consider it inappropriate to include this type of structure within ''nuraghe'' and prefer the term, "nuragic village".
The nuraghes were built in an undetermined epoch (not earlier than [[6th millennium BC]]). Although some of them have been dated [[3500 BC]], most of them are thought to have been built between the middle of the [[Bronze Age]] ([[18th century BC|18th]]-[[15th century BC|15th]] centuries BC) and the [[Late Bronze Age]]. Many were in continuous use from their erection until [[Roman Republic|Rome]] entered Sardinia in the ([[2nd century BC]]). The uncertainty in dating the nuraghes is noticeable when comparing Sardinian chronologies.
According to Massimo Pallottino, a scholar of Sardinian prehistory and an Etruscologist, the architecture produced by the nuragic civilization was the most advanced of any civilization in the western Mediterranean durng this epoch, including those in the regions of [[Magna Graecia]]. Of the 8,000 extant nuraghes, only a few have been scientifically excavated. Interest in Sardinian archaeology has been minimal, except for the [[black market]] trade in bronze statues.

<!-- Some hold that round buildings, or circular plan buildings, are typical of nomadic peoples. Basing themselves on this claim, some propose that ancient Sardinians frequently relocated their settlements.
The use of the nuraghes has not been clearly determined: whether religious temple, ordinary dwelling, village chief's residence, military stronghold, meeting hall of government leaders, or a combination of some of these. Some of the nuraghes are, however, in strategic locations from which important passages could be easily controlled.
Undoubtedly nuraghes had a meaningful symbolic content. They may have just connoted wealth or power, or they may have been an indication that a site was a village. Recent theories tend to believe that Sardinian villages were independent polities (in a sense [[city-state]]s although in a geographical sense they were not cities) that formed federations and that the building of these monuments might have depended on an preagreed distribution of territory among federated villages.
The nuragic civilization developed relatively advanced metallurgy. The nuragic people gained renown in many areas of the Mediterranean for the bronze they produced.

The most important complex is the Nuraghe ...''Su Nuraxi'' SU NURAXI IS SIMPLY "THE NURAGHE" IN SARDINIAN... in [[Barumini]] ({{coor dms|39|42|21|N|8|59|26|E|type:landmark}}), centered around a three-story tower built around [[1500s BC]]. This site was recently made a [[UNESCO]] [[World Heritage Site]]. At this site Dr. Giovanni Lilliu discovered a fortified village that at times had been covered by ground and had become a hill. Other nuraghes are in [[Serra Orrios]], [[Alghero]], [[Torralba, Italy|Torralba]], [[Tiscali]] [[Macomer]], [[Abbasanta]] (see [[Losa]] and ''illustration''), [[Orroli]], [[Villanovaforru]], [[Sarroch]], [[Olbia]].
A distinctive art form of the [[nuragic people]] is the bronze statuette called a ''[[bronzetto]]''. The typical subjects of ''bronzetto'' include village chiefs ("sardus pater", singular), hunting or fighting men, animals, or more rarely, women.
Other edifices of the ''nuragicis'' are the so-called "[[Giants tombs]]", ''megaron'' temples, sacred dwellings, "[[sacred wells]]", sanctuaries, and enclosures.
Nuragic art includes stone carvings or statues representing female divinities ([[Thanit]], the main religious entity, is a goddess); these works however have often been considered as partly a fruit of relationships with [[Phoenicia]]ns.
