San Salvatore di Sinis
"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.
Where the small and humble church "San Salvatore di Sinis" is now, were already Punic (aka Carthaginian) and later the Roman temples. These were built here over a hypogeum with a Nuragic holy well.
As the rooms of the hypogeum ("Ipogeo di San Salvatore") were once used as a prison, there are many graffiti all around. I have the impression that there is some Arabic script, maybe a trace of the 16th century Ottoman Wars.
