"Just on Menorca Island more than twelve villages with more than 250 Talayots can be found." source
"Human settlement in Menorca has been verified right back to the Bronze Age (2000 BC) and this period is the pre-Talayotic period which left various burial monuments such as megalithic tombs and collective tombs called navetas. The best known of these is the Naveta de Tudons. Towards 1400 B.C. this period evolved into the Talayotic period dated between 2000 and 1000 BC, significant for it's production of various large stone constructions known as talayots.
