  • Nuraghic Village of Su Nuraxi ◼ Site Location
    Nuraghic village of Su Nuraxi ◼ Site location The archaeological site of Su Nuraxi is located in central-south Sardinia, on the border between Marmilla and Sarcidano. The complex stands visible from a distance for those coming from Cagliari, or from western Marmilla, on a small plain at 238 metres above sea level, located on the edge of the provincial road from Barumini - to the Turri exit for Oristano, about 1 km from the residential area of Barumini. ◼ History of excavations and studies Already known since 1834 thanks to a brief article written by Vittorio Angius in the his- torical-geographical dictionary by Goffredo Casalis: “It was larger than the others, and less destroyed seen from a distance of a quarter of an hour by the people on the road to Tuìli, distinguished by the general name of nuraji; it deserves consideration” . In 1862m the priest Giovanni Spano also named it, together with other three Nuraghe, using the name “Suraxi” . “There are few remains of other Nuragic buildings, or only the name at the foot of the coastline (of the basalt plateau) remains, like Bruncu su Nuraxi, close to the road from Tuili to Barumini”, wrote the archaeologist Antonio Taramelli in 1907. The first to notice the presence of archaeological structures in the rise of “Bruncu Su Nu- raxi” (the hill of the Nuraghe) were farm labourers working the land for Oreste Sanna, the owner of the estate. The oldest photos of the artificial hill dating back to 1937 shows the stones from the col- lapsed archaeological complex spread around the slopes (fig.

  • Sicily's Ancient Landscapes & Timeless Traditions 2021
    YOUR O.A.T. ADVENTURE TRAVEL PLANNING GUIDE® Sicily’s Ancient Landscapes & Timeless Traditions 2021 Small Groups: 8-16 travelers—guaranteed! (average of 13) Overseas Adventure Travel ® The Leader in Personalized Small Group Adventures on the Road Less Traveled 1 Dear Traveler, At last, the world is opening up again for curious travel lovers like you and me. And the O.A.T. Sicily’s Ancient Landscapes & Timeless Traditions itinerary you’ve expressed interest in will be a wonderful way to resume the discoveries that bring us so much joy. You might soon be enjoying standout moments like these: Who doesn’t love to eat in Italy? But Sicilian food, which is heavily influenced by the Arabs who thrived here, is in a league of its own. Sample the local flavors when you visit the Tunisian-inflected town of Mazara del Vallo and share a traditional Sicilian lunch with a local family. As you savor the home-cooked fare, you’ll learn how the city’s identity continues to evolve, and the vital role of the local fishing industry. You’ll also visit a home of a very different sort, one that traveler Carol Bowman described as “a house full of hope.” It’s Casa di Maria, an organization (and Grand Circle Foundation partner) established by a family in Catania to provide a loving home for children who are refugees or victims of neglect and domestic violence. The daughter-in-law of the founders (Sergio and Carmela) will enlighten you about Sicily’s foster care system. And you’ll meet more of the Casa’s extended family, including a young Nigerian woman who literally showed up on Sicily’s shores with nothing and grew up here, and hear her harrowing—but ultimately inspiring—story.

For this exceptional voyage we have selected four destinations that are especially fascinating examples of the complex history of the Mediterranean: Sicily, Sardinia, Corsica, and the Balearic Islands. This May, we would like you to join us on a private-style cruise to these delightful islands. The Carthaginians and the Greeks, the Romans and the Byzantines, the Arabs and the Normans all influenced the history and culture of Sicily. We’ll visit the magnificent Doric temple at Segesta, built by Greek colonists in 420 B.C., and explore the ancient town of Erice, dominated by a 12th-century Norman castle standing on the remains of a temple that tradition says was built by the Trojans. Sardinia is an especially remarkable island, with more than 7,000 prehistoric sites dating back nearly 4,000 years. We’ll explore the finest of these Nuraghic sites, as well as Alghero, an enchanting port town that for centuries was ruled by the kings of Aragon. To this day, many residents of Alghero speak the island’s Catalan dialect. The Balearic Islands are an archipelago off the northeast coast of Spain.

The town of Agrigento and the surrounding Valley of Temples represents a place of world importance because of the historical, archaeological and artistic value of their monuments. Since ancient time the town planning expansion of Agrigento has been controlled by the particular geological set up of the area and the repeated and extensive instability phenomena The safeguard of this precious cultural heritage is seriously threatened by slope failures including falls, rock topples and rock slides involving the calcarenitic outcrops. While rotational and translational slides occur when failures develop in the clay and sandy-silt soils below the calcarenitic levels, involving wide areas. This paper explains the geological and structural set up, the geotechnical aspects and man-made factors that exert major influence on this phenomena, on the stability of the area and on the basal foundation of the temples, above all of the Juno Temple. Key terms: Slope stability, Clay, Biocalcarenite, Cultural heritage, Agrigento, Italy Introduction valley below, today known as the Valley of the Temples. A mighty boundary wall has existed to defend the city since its The town of Agrigento is set in a physically fragile foundation, today considerable remains of it can be found environment between unstable slopes and ancient structures along its course.

  • I Percorsi Museali in Italia Nel 2018
    30 LUGLIO 2020 I percorsi museali in Italia nel 2018 I percorsi museali qui presentati sono formati da itinerari stradali che collegano i Musei e istituzioni similari censiti dall’indagine Istat 2018 (Istat, 2019a) e sono arricchiti da informazioni sui luoghi della cultura e sul turismo tratte dalla statistica ufficiale o da fonti istituzionali. La metodologia con la quale sono costruiti era stata già sperimentata sui dati dell’indagine Musei e istituzioni similari 2015, e diffusa sotto forma di Statistica sperimentale (Istat, 2019b). Tramite una procedura GIS, i 107 musei di partenza, scelti in quanto strutture con il maggior numero di visitatori in ogni Unità Territoriale Sovracomunale (UTS) (le province, le città metropolitane, i liberi consorzi di comuni o le ex provincie del Friuli-Venezia Giulia) sono collegati a tutti gli altri musei che distano fino a 30 minuti di percorrenza in automobile. I tratti di strada percorribili attraversano un insieme di territori comunali nei quali si trovano borghi, aree naturali protette, siti UNESCO. Questi territori sono caratterizzati anche dal punto di vista dei turisti che li frequentano e della popolazione che li abita, tutti potenziali fruitori dei musei e del loro patrimonio naturale e culturale. I percorsi presentati sono molto diversi tra di loro, alcuni sono particolarmente ricchi di musei e di altre tipologie di beni culturali, alcuni si concentrano in un unico centro, altri si distribuiscono lungo molti chilometri nel territorio, oltre i confini delle UTS e delle regioni di riferimento. In qualche caso i percorsi si sovrappongono fra di loro, altrove invece sono isolati. Gli amministratori e i decisori pubblici locali, gli imprenditori della cultura e del turismo, gli operatori economici, troveranno in questa visione geografica integrata un utile supporto per il loro lavoro.
