or pinnetta). The oldest have circular stone walls and
wooden roof construction, covered by reed. They are not more

shelters for the animals. Even compositions of two or more
shelters together, with enclosures for several flocks, can
be found.
Basic construction is corbelling, the frame consists of vertical
walls until the roof, composed by bigger plates. Stepped roofs
are rare.
Mostly in plateau near Romana pinetas are still in use.
