The giants of Mont'e Prama
Category: Art exhibitions
Time: all year
The statues of Mont'e Prama (900-700 BC) are the only examples of stone statuary from the Nuragic era to have been found in Sardinia so far. They come from the Mont'e Prama archaeological area in the municipality of Cabras, to the West of the Cabras wetlands in the centre of the Sinis peninsula. The site was discovered in 1974, when a plough brought the first fragments of sculptures to the surface. As well as identifying ten or so tombs, the archaeological digs in the 1970s led to the discovery of more than 5,000 fragments. After a long restoration process they were reassembled into 38 statues.
