Sardinia Nuragic civilization UNESCO candidacy
Overview
The Italian Ministry of Culture and the National UNESCO Commission have initiated a preliminary evaluation to include Sardinia’s protohistoric sacred architecture on the UNESCO World Heritage List. The candidacy, titled “Architecture and sacred spaces, the sacredness of protohistoric Sardinia,” focuses on the spiritual landscape and monuments of the Nuragic civilization dating from 1800 to 800 BCE, including sacred wells, giant's tombs, and stone towers.
Following the launch of the evaluation, regional initiatives such as the “Dialoghi Nuragici” have been organized to discuss the archaeological legacy as a driver for economic and social development. These events aim to connect historical research with public debate, exploring the potential of the UNESCO candidacy to create value for local communities and examining the historical relationships between Nuragic Sardinia and the Eastern Mediterranean.
