Es Closos de Can Gaià is a Pre-Talaiotic settlement near Portocolom (Felanitx), dating from the Bronze Age (ca. 1600 B. C.), about 700 m up from the coast. Every year during the Summer, volunteer archeologists mainly from the UIB university in Palma de Mallorca, plus a small army of helpers, mostly students from the Instituto secondary school in Felanitx, embark on the site for a few weeks, furthering excavation and a general clean-up.
There will be an open day at the pre-historic site, August 16th, from 18h00. The volunteers are friendly, knowledgeable and generous with the information that they are more than willing to share.
