"San Salvatore di Sinis" is the name of an uninhabited, kind of "empty" village, built around the small church "San Salvatore di Sinis". The houses of the village are "muristenes" or "cumbessias", only used by pilgrims during the festivities. These houses date to the 17th century, though the "cultural spot" here is known already since Bronze Age times.
Here is the small and humble church "San Salvatore di Sinis". Already the Punics (aka "Carthaginians") and later the Romans had a temple erected exactly here. All temples and chaples were built here over a hypogeum with a Nuragic holy well.
What now seem to be abandoned, gets really crowded for about a week end of September. Then the "Corsa degli Scalzi" takes place. This is a procession undertaken by hundreds of men from Cabras to San Salvatore - running barefoot and carrying a statue. A week later the statue will return to Cabras.
