Let’s start our trip around Sardinia recalling the past times, thousands of years ago, and the ancient nuragich people with its still noticeable presence made of archaeological evidences still reminding our civilization’s roots and the mankind’s childhood. The Nuraghe seem to watch over the land through their fortified towers. Nearby the old burial place is characterised by funerary little cells hollow in the hills all around Sardinia. Those cells were christened “Domus de Janas”, that is “witches’house”, by the popular superstition.<br> Other vestiges catch the visitor’s attention around the nuragich villages, such as the “Pietre Fitte”, witnesses of the cosmic and regenerating goddess cult, and the giants’ grave, where the divinized heroes and the greatest ancestors “sleep”.<br> On the tablelands there are numerous temples’ ruins, characterised by wells where people used to venerate the celestial water and the Great Mother. Other important evidences are the more than six hundred bronze statuettes, kept now in the Archaeological Museum in Cagliari and able to testify the Life, the Traditions, the Goddess, the Competitions and the Arts of those ancient people.<br> Sardinia still keeps itself unaltered and its inhabitants help us to make out the features and the temper of the people living in this land during the Bronze Age.
