this are one of the strangest cultures in the world, the island was dominated by many great powers but nuragic tribes kept fighting and living among them
Came here after hearing something about the Ancient Sardinians on another channel. "Ah, there's a video about ancient buildings on Sardinia" ..... man in track suit roughly throws books and pins map with tiny cups .... "Wait, whatnow?" ... Lovely shots of ancient structures while soothing voice over describes them ... "Ahhh, ok. This is more the sort of thing I imagined." ... man in tracksuit "*Quick! Run!*" I have no idea what the hell is going on with this - but I AM TOTALLY HERE FOR IT!
Thanks that was excellent. It's probably to be expected that people will attribute mythological significance to ancient buildings - they seem to have that effect! These ruins in Sardinia are stunning and definitely evoke a sense of mystery. People must have been asking for centuries: What happened here? At least now Sardinian tourism can tell them.
@@BULLAKI I mean if you can find all of them but at least the one playing around 2:00 it might be playing before that I can't really tell where some of them transition

Very good shootings but considering that there are very few English videos on the Nuragic civilization I think it would've been better if you focused on the best preserved and elaborate Nuragic monuments such as Santu Antine, Arrubiu, Losa, Santa Cristina, Su Tempiesu, Is Paras, Sa Sedda e Sos Carros etc rather on the barely standing Nuraghi which surround Su Nuraxi, and since you were focusing on the Nuraghi near the town of Barumini I don't know why you didn't include that under casa Zapata whose size and state of preservation are second only to Su Nuraxi in the territory of Barumini. I also have to say that it is not true that there was a decline around 1200-1020 bc, yes Nuraghi were abandoned but large sanctuaries were built along with refined temples and sculptures, and settlements got larger: up to 30 ha and some of the settlements were progressing towards an urban configuration. Finally I don't see the necessity of specifying that Sardinia was not Atlantis, I think that anyone with half a brain can figure out that Atlanis is a myth by himself, it would've been better if you gave the viewers more actual information about the Nuragic civilization.
Hi, we shot this video simply to show other nuraghi that are almost never mentioned. There is plenty of literature and videos on the nuraghi you've mentioned. Strictly speaking you need authorizations for shooting within the area of Su Nuraxi (especially with a drone). Archaeology is not STEM although it uses scientific tools... it's all interpretations... and we have provided references at the end of the video. If you have ever visited the airport of Cagliari you might have noticed a large stand on 'Sardinia = Atlantis', which has been sitting there since months. Yes, anything can be discussed. If you are interested in collaborating on a shooting in the areas you've mentioned we can discuss that in private.
It's true that there are some videos about it but I can't find any comprehensive English video about the Nuragic civilization as a whole, but I hadn't thought about the authorization part. As for the literature yes of course you're right but probably the average non Italian guy isn't going to bother with it considering most of the articles and pdfs online are in Italian and it's easier to watch a RUclips video, which of course won't give him the same quantity of information but can still introduce him to the topic if it's well done. That said it's a very good video and I understand that I came off as a bit too criticizing and that wasn't my intention, so good job on the video. Another thing that you'll notice is that if you look for English videos about the Nuragic civilization you'll encounter videos from channels like Megalithic builders, ancient aliens etc that are pseudo archaeology videos so more actual videos about the Nuragic civilization would be a good thing, I think a one hour documentary illustrating the main monuments, sites, sculptures of the Nuragic civilization along with the history of its interactions with other entities would be ideal but I understand that's a lot of work so mine was just a suggestion.
Thanks! I agree, it's a good idea, but such a video production is likely to be relatively expensive. As I mention in the video, one of the problems with Nuragic archaeology is the lack of publications in international peer-reviewed journals (in english of course). You can find many books... but as you know, authors can write any sort of junk in books... which is actually what the big public seems to like (and buy). This is another video on a large/unexcavated Nuraghe nearby (need to turn on english subtititles): ruclips.net/video/fN1phqWil8s/видео.html.
I've seen it and I hadn't heard about that one before, very intriguing. So many interesting structures and artifacts being discovered every year, like the Nuragic road for wagons discovered at Selargius in 2016. From a certain point of view I sort of understand where all the Atlantis bullshit is coming from, since the Nuragic civilization was such a prolific culture and yet it is barely known even by many Sardinians, so those crazy conspiracy theories are a reaction to this silence, though that doesn't justify them of course. I'm astonished by how densely inhabited Sardinia was in the second millennium bc, Nuraghi everywhere, consider that as you well know there are thousands of Nuraghi (almost 7000) and some Nuraghi could have many towers and walls, Arrubiu had 21 towers I think, we're talking about tens of thousands of corbel vaulted towers made out of stone being built over a few centuries, simply amazing. And along with them 800 monumental tombs and many stone settlements, and slightly later on the well temples, some with incredibly refined masonry, sacred fountains, megaron temples etc. Building even the most basic Nuraghe isn't like building a simple hut so there were many people and resources involved in the project, to think that there are so many and that some of them are so incredibly complex, amazing.
Hello Asparagus: I am in Budoni, Sardegna and wish to find some Nuraghi on this side of the island but cannot find information. Do you know of any? Grazie
Interesting commentary suggesting that those who challenge the dogma of mainstream archaeology are engaged in sudo-archaeology and as having "cult" beliefs. Then making the claim of authority based on peer review. An echo chamber is the same wherever they develop.
In any scientific field you do your research, you submit your findings to a journal with a decent impact factor (IF), your results are evaluated by 2-3 reviewers, and the editor accepts/rejects your work. That doesn't mean your results are correct. You typically wait for a second validation, which is citations of your work by other works published in high IF journals (which might vary depending on whether yours is a niche field or not). However, also in this second step there are some cases of highly cited bogus/retracted works (retractionwatch.com/the-retraction-watch-leaderboard/top-10-most-highly-cited-retracted-papers/). Because science is falsifiable theories can be expanded (Newton vs Einstein), disproved (aether theory), etc., which also happens within the framework of peer-review. That's how science has been working since the past centuries. Archaeology is quite different from natural science, but still uses the scientific method and scientific tools. If someone is proposing non-conventional theories he/she should go through the peer review process. I understand that the process might be frustrating (especially when you submit to high IF journals, such as Nature), but writing unchecked appealing books is not the way science progresses and certainly selling copies among the big public is not a scientific validation, it's just being popular (e.g. the authors of Ancient Aliens en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ancient_Aliens).

I imagine that these were the dwellings of charioteers much like the Medieval castles were for the chevaliers.
or shepherds or farmers... they've probably been used for multiple purposes.

"earlier and happy era. when the island was governed by wise and powerful men".
could it be the tartarians?
What do you mean by 'tartarians'?
@@BULLAKI look up "TARTARY EMPIRE - AETHER" here on youtube
@Dave Cockayne It was probably MDMA
@Dave Cockayne of course. silly me :D
Ancient Sardinians were the Sherdens, one of the so called Sea people of the mediterranean, they had nothing to spare with tartarians.
I was in agreement till you pointed out the finding of giant bones was psuedo archaeology. You're part of the cover up.
Yes, that's right, I'm hiding giant bones in my backyard.
there is no such thing as giants stop with these cheap theories
Stop the cap
They all look like they been destroyed by the same thing
