The Nuragic complex in Seleni is located in the forest of the same name, 6 km from Lanusei at a height of 978 metres, in an environmental setting characterised by a thick covering of holm oaks, durmast, chestnut and poplar trees<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

The considerable archaeological interest comes from the unusual concentration of territorial defense and control buildings, civil buildings and monuments erected as a memorial and celebration of the dead and of worship. This abundance, together with the invaluable natural environment, merits the name of \u201cArchaeological Park\u201d.<\/p>\n

The part of the site which can currently be visited is made up of two gigantic tombs<\/strong> and a Nuragic village<\/strong> which includes the ruins of a Nuragic complex and some huts.\u00a0But the area of Seleni also preserves the remains of three holy wells<\/strong> and a residential area of 200 huts<\/strong>,that has not yet been touched by the excavation work.
\nIt would not be out of place to speculate that the plane of Seleni and its immediate vicinity – like the area known as Perd\u2019e Froris, where furnaces for the fusion of metals were discovered – was entirely inhabited, and that the settlement played a dominant role in the entire area. This is confirmed by the discovery of items from the Near East<\/strong>, proof of contact with far-off cultures, and the longevity of the site, whose duration spans from the Middle Bronze age (XV century B.C.) up to the Iron Age (VI century B.C.).<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"author":10,"featured_media":11710,"template":"","tipologia":[993,1002],"categoria":[1025],"tematica":[1029],"class_list":["post-25327","place","type-place","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","tipologia-tomba-di-giganti-en","tipologia-villaggio-nuragico-en","categoria-archaeological-site","tematica-archeology"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\nArchaeological Park in Seleni - Idese<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/idese.cultura.gov.it\/en\/place\/archaeological-park-in-selenium\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_GB\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Archaeological Park in Seleni - Idese\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"The Nuragic complex in Seleni is located in the forest of the same name, 6 km from Lanusei at a height of 978 metres, in an environmental setting characterised by a thick covering of holm oaks, durmast, chestnut and poplar trees.
