The Historical Roots of Settimo San Pietro
The article connected the Antico Presente identity with cultural landmarks around Settimo San Pietro. Cuccuru Nuraxi, dated to 1400–1200 BC, has trilobate towers and a sacred well associated with water worship. The Domu de Janas at Montixeddu, dated to 3400–2700 BC, is linked to the spring known as s’acqua ’e is dolus, traditionally credited with soothing pain. The bread and Malvasia festivals were also presented as expressions of local craft and historical continuity.
