The second of our videos exploring the Ancient History of Menorca & the Balearic Isles, looking at the progression of Ancient structures from the Navetas, through the Talaiots to the Taulas and everything inbetween
Check out our previous episodes on Majorca & Menorca to get some more background on the islands:

My ancestors lived in Menorca. Thank you for the video.
Love Menorca and being visiting since I was a kid, first time 1974, I`ve been to alot of these sites as I am also fascinated with ancient history. Thank you for these vids, I`ve really enjoyed as the archaeology of the island is minimal compared to other places. I do find the Taula`s particularly interesting
thks! yes: continue to be inspired by the Talaiotic sites - still can't believe youtube isn't full of vids on the topic!
Dude, PLEASE CONTINUE YOUR VOLOGGING - it's epic :)
Thankyou :) really appreciate it - only just starting to find an audience for these, really appreciate the support!
"...Some Ken Burns shots..." got the like on that alone!
Love it. Was at son corro yesterday 😎
Awesome! 🙌🙌
Really insightful, thanks! Cool music too :)
Super interesting video dude. Keep it up!
Fantastic work! !!!
thks!
Heading to Mallorica in June. Any tips for visiting the historic sites? We plan to have a car.
yes as long as you've got a car you'll be fine! they're all very accessible - roads are good
of the main ones we mentioned in the Mallorca video: Son Fornés, Ses Païsses & Necròpolis de Son Real are the ones not to miss
You've got the Talaiots of Son Catlar, Binifat & the sanctuary of Son Corró all in a cluster in the middle so those are easy to do in one go
the biggest one we missed is Capocorp Vell in the south which is well worth a look
& of course there's all the stuff in Palma - the Islamic Baths being a particular treat
Hope you have a great time!
Hit me with that knowledge fam
You've become more archaeological over time. That's a terrible joke. Sorry.
Fascinating though, I knew nothing of this culture prior to watching. I love the idea of a "Slingers Corps" in the Carthaginian army, it must've been a crazy-looking force, didn't they use elephants too?
I liked the soundtrack to this one. Though I did have to scream into a cupboard at one point, my ear for the Catalan language is hyper sensitive.
My intuition says something spiritual is related to the rocks.
scuse us, Isles is our thing 🏝🏝🏝 shouldn't you be in the woods or something?
I visited Talaiotic de Monfeti in April this year. There are some works there now. I was surprised to find many bones and pottery fragments just dumped with soil next to digs. A bit careless from an archaeological point of view.
