The Tunusual traits compared to the other essential aspects of the Sardinian Mediterranean territories. Its peculiarities archaeology and architecture are well known, are concentrated in particular between the even if in a partial way, thanks to those late pre-history and the proto-history and excellent examples of the Nuragic complex have their apex in the Nuragic civilization . of Barumini or the Romanesque church of However, some other distinctive historical- Saccargia, which are already part of a time features of Sardinia come from the common heritage ; but in a world where significant presence of the Phoenician, gathering information is relatively simple, the Punic, Roman and Byzantine colonisations. public administration has the duty of A new and specific culture arose from the presenting the culture of Sardinia in an interaction of the local culture with those objective and complete way, so that it could outer civilizations: its material and be available for any kind of experts and or immaterial aspects can be easily found and any people without experience. That is why the R.A.S. ( Regional Administration of innovative educational products connected Sardinia) has chosen to stimulate the to the Sardinian places of culture, creating an Oristanese spectacular aspects of some of the main integrated system of sites and monuments archaeological and architectonic remains, that will be rebuilt with the use of the most which were already built in dramatic recent 3D technologies. So, the Sardinian landscapes that could fascinate even the heritage will be available for any kind of user least interested visitor. But the real challenge through high quality products characterized lies in contextualizing the archaeological sites by fascinating graphics and rich interactive in their cultural environment. The idea comes information. With these purposes, seventeen from the concept that the remains of ancient sites among the most significant of the cultures can “tell a story” when they are Sardinian history and culture, deployed in “examined” all together, as if they were the eight areas of interests , have been virtually pages of a book that otherwise would be reconstructed with three-dimensional and incomprehensible at the end. Basically, the realistic features , as a result of an accurate project aims to illustrate a monument or a research on the bibliographic and site showing the reasons why it is interesting cartographic material. The digital not just for itself but also and above all for its reconstructions meet those reconstructive importance in the surrounding cultural and hypotheses that have been validated by the natural environment. This aspect is essential scientific and academic community and that and useful for the interpretation of the today originate from the excavations, the field world: it helps us to understand why we researches, the historical-archaeological and should preserve our archaeological and artistic studies. Therefore, the 3D architectonical heritage , beyond its reconstructions offer the highest degree of monumentality and although pertinent to fidelity to the original building or site, cultures, as for instance the Roman one, that reproducing the surrounding natural are usually considered extraneous to the landscape and the archaeological identitarian inheritance. The ways through environment with the external structures, the which this kind of knowledge should be inner spaces and real-life settings. The spread, are set depending on the media to ultimate digital product will be available at which they are addressed for its fruition. Still, some of the most important cultural places of the available products will go beyond the Sardinia, as for instance museums and mere didactic presentation of the site to universities, and at the so-called “access come to a wider and complete description points”, that are specific public spaces where from all cultural points of view. the interactive multimedia posts will be installed and accessible to all visitors.
