The Capocorb Vell complex consists of a nucleus of three circular and two square talayots, as well as several surrounding constructions and a series of talayots and other types of buildings on its periphery. The Talayotic people were ungathered and only archaeology can provide data about their life. This complex was studied by the archaeologists L. Ch. Watelin, French and Albert Mayr, German, although the first scientific excavations were carried out in the decade of 1910-20 by Josep Colominas Roca under the patronage of the distinguished Hispanic prehistorian Luis Pericot. Capocorb Vell is unique in the western Mediterranean and by Government Decree dated June 3, 1931 was declared a Historic-Artistic Monument.
