		La Trapa is a property with great cultural and environmental interest, situated in the extreme south west of the Serra de Tramuntana mountain range, overlooking sa Dragonera island, in the municipality of Andratx.
		Later, La Trapa passed through different hands and the buildings and terraces were extended, transforming them into a property dedicated to agriculture, until well into the XX century, when the property was abandoned and left to ruin.
		As for a visit to La Trapa, as well as natural elements such as the cliffs, the vegetation and the birds, special attention should be paid to the buildings and their surroundings, the water drainage, the mill, the threshing area and the vantage viewpoint.

	Trapa bicornis (Devil's pod) - UBC Botanical Garden Forums
		I later found out that they were 'trapa bicornis' or commonly known as Devil Pod or Bat Nut because of their shape.
		Trapa spp., are found in still and slow-moving water systems in warm temperate regions, often as a weed, as in the Caspian, where it threatens sturgeon-feeding grounds, and in India and Sri Lanka, where it invades irrigation tanks, causing nuisance by producing large quantities of decaying vegetation.
		Sadly though from the sound of it i don't think the seeds will be viable, since i think they spent quite a bit of time dry.
