Although the name of this region of Sardinia refers to medieval times Baronia has very deep historical roots as evidenced by pre-Nuragic and Nuragic archaeological sites. Small flint and obsidian objects date the presence of resident nuclei from the 6th millennium BC. <\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

In later eras, human activity marks the territory with important works that have come down to us thanks to the immortality of stone, the domus de janas dug in the rock and the tombs of giants such as the Su Picante burial made with granite slabs express the high value of the funerary cult in the prehistory of the Island. In this long pre-Christian period, the Nuragic characterizes the landscapes of Sardinia with its stone towers built without the use of mortar. The fascination of nuraghi comes not only from the extraordinary construction technique but from the evocative history of a prosperous era, rich in trade and cultural exchange for Sardinia. The nuraghe San Pietro near the town of Torp\u00e8 is an archaeological site dating from the Middle Bronze Age (1500-1800 BC) was used for a long time until the Iron Age.

The coast of Baronia then knew the presence of the Etruscans, Romans and other peoples with whom it experienced alternating events. Significant is certainly the medieval period when the island divided into four regions called Giudicati experienced a different social organization marked by feudalism, in this era the villages and castles of the baronial families were built. In Posada the Castello della Fava with its tower has towered over the hill for about nine centuries. <\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

At the end of the Judicial period, around 1500, the Sardinian coasts were targeted by the barbarian peoples from northern Africa, the frequent raids by pirates forced governments to organize a defense system that built coastal watchtowers.
The Tower of San Giovanni and the Tower of Santa Lucia are still important landmarks for those sailing along the coasts of Baronia. The spirituality of the communities of this land finds its greatest expression with the religious festivals, in the numerous churches built in the countryside and in urban areas, the communities of Siniscola, La Caletta, Santa Lucia, Posada, and Torp\u00e8 have been handing down their devotion for centuries, involving the community for several days in the evocative religious rites. <\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
