Atalaya islámica

The Atalaya de Uxama -located in the Spanish municipality of Burgo de Osma-Ciudad de Osma, belonging to the province of Soria, autonomous community of Castilla y León- is a watchtower that is located on the top of the hill where the Celtiberian-Roman city of Uxama was located and sits on a Roman house, known as the house of the Atalaya. With a circular plan and cylindrical elevation, it is characterized by the existence of an outer ring wall as a truss, whose structural function is doubtful, made with building materials from the Roman period, consisting of large concrete blocks of lime with small stones, placed as ashlars.
