ARCHEOLOGY HISTORY & EXCURSIONS
Sardinian archaeology is rich, with many unique sites testifying contacts and influences from Phoenicians, Romans, and Byzantines, reflecting the island's role as a crossroads of Mediterranean cultures. Sardinia’s Nuragic civilization (ca. 1800–200 BCE) has fascinated many people; with over 7,000 nuraghi—megalithic towers of unknown exact function—representing a sophisticated and distinct culture. Archaeological findings, including sacred wells, domus de janas (Houses of the Fairies), tombs of giants, and complex village structures, suggest a highly organized society with religious and communal systems. The island’s archaeological record stands out for its diversity and the enduring mysteries of its prehistoric past.
