The shrine at Monte d’Accoddi constitutes an architectural
unicum
in the context of the Mediterranean of the 4
th
millennium cal. BC. The building comprised of a terrace with an access ramp, a form that has led to an ongoing debate as to the possible origins of this architectural model. In its earliest phase,
attributable to the frst half of the 4
th
millennium cal. BC, the edifce consisted of a truncated pyramidal
core. During the second half of the same millennium this was englobed by a second building, similar
to the frst in general shape, but much larger and with a central, possibly stepped, core. The site was
occupied during the 3
rd
millennium cal. BC and occasionally so during the following proto-historic and
subsequent phases of history. This paper will present new radiocarbon dates that will help to defne
the construction and occupation phases of the monument as well as the settlement that grew around it.
