“…However, new dating seems to refute this possibility (Gornés et al, ; Mestres and Nicolás, ; Waldren, among others), as military confrontations in the Nile Delta are thought to have occurred between 1520 and 1370 BCE, a period when maritime construction in the two main Balearic Islands was at its peak. Moreover, taking into consideration that the Talaiotic culture appeared some decades after 1000 BCE (Trias et al, ), the assumed identity between the Torreana, Nuragic and Talaiotic cultures seem unlikely (Plantalamor, ; Rosselló, ). The two latter cyclopean tower‐shaped constructions, Nuragic and Talaiotic, were contemporaneous only between the third phase of the Nuragic and the first phase of the Talaiotic periods, being the Torreana culture more ancient.…”
