Eastern Biniac is a Bronze Age funerary naveta on Menorca, Spain, dated to 1500-1000 BC, where collective inhumations were practised [1]. The structure has a circular layout with walls built using Cyclopean masonry [1]. It is classified as an "intermediate naveta," potentially representing a transitional form between earlier megalithic tombs and later elongated navetas [1]. Archaeologist Maria Luisa Serra Belabre conducted a brief excavation in the 1960s [1].
