Coming back from our visit to the millennial olive trees, we took a wrong turn and got "lost" (just saying) in the countryside. At the end of a long dirt road, we found this. Completely unattended, not an explanation, not a sign. Neither a ticket! Then I learned that it is the oldest "nuraghe" of all Gallura, built in the II Millennium b.c. We did not know it was there! We entered it and enjoyed it in complete loneliness. And the wind would sing a curious deep tone through the majestic granite blocks. My friend Kali @kali66 asked me once about the Sardinian giants. I do not know much, but this is belonging to their period!
Crazy that these historic sites are just there without signs or information, just peacefully existing for who ever wants to explore them. Then in Utah, a Boy Scout leader topples over an ancient rock formation for fun...it was nearly 200 million years old.
@gardenfolk Yes. At the same time, its an unique experience: the wonder of the discovery. Though, the risk of some "mistake" like the Boy Scout leader's is there... @yaorenliu Agreed, you couldn't be more true! @blueberry1222 Thank you. It was amazing, indeed!
How wonderful to find something so historical and ancient, and even better to have the place to yourself. Wow, I find it hard to get my head around that kind of antiquity.
@yaorenliu Agreed, you couldn't be more true!
@blueberry1222 Thank you. It was amazing, indeed!
@4rky thank you very much!
