More Information
Details: The rich ores of Sardinia attracted to the island the trading peoples of the Eastern Mediterranean, such as the Mycenaeans and the Cypriots. However, it was the Phoenicians who, in the VIII Cent. BC founded the first permanent settlements, selecting coastal areas with natural harbours, the best locations for trading and commercial centres. Today Sardinia continues to flourish as a complex and many-faceted island, which in its culture, landscape and art preserves the traces of its long history.
