In this marvellous preserved site, 4500 years of history contemplate you.
you plunge of only one blow in time. Bronze the age, the beginning of spirituality, the men will seek to include/understand their environment and the goal of the life.
the site of Cauria consists of a dolmen and two alignments of menhirs (I Stantari and Rinagghiu).
The dolmen located on a platform could have been a burial, the men start to be concerned with deaths.
the menhirs either are carved (inscribed menhirs) or simple, some have a human form, of other are of simple monoliths. The statues menhirs are sometimes armed they are the warriors. It is probable that these menhirs represent men who fought to defend the community. I Stantari (menhirs) and Rinagghiu (sand) which are separated by today several meters were to be in the beginning a single alignment. It is wise to note, also that the face of the menhirs is turned towards the raising sun, and the back with the setting sun. Once more the spiritual direction of these men is shown, raising it representing the life, and laying down it representing death.
A little more in withdrawal of the site, the enormous blocks of stones (taffoni) surely made it possible to the first men to find shelters.
