This necropolis, besides being evidence of the pre-Nuragic presence on Asinara, is also proof that these ancient peoples were everywhereâlike parsleyâscattered all across the main island of Sardinia and its smaller surrounding islets.
Camouflaged and hidden at the foot of a hill in the area of Campu Perdu, this tomb delights enthusiasts of prehistoric historyâor of the afterlife itselfâwith a main chamber from which five smaller burial niches branch out.
In this Domus de Janasâwhich, so far, remains the only pre-Nuragic or Nuragic trace ever discovered on the whole of Asinaraâa small bronze figurine known as the Bue Stante (Standing Ox) was reportedly found, now on display at the Antiquarium Turritano in Porto Torres.
