Sardinia 1974 On this Island off the coast of Italy, a farmer in the Montiprama region is plowing his fields when he strikes what first appears to be a large rock, but upon closer inspection he realizes that his plow has revealed something far more amazing—it is the head of a tremendous ancient statue. The farmer dug around there, brushing away the mud, pulled it out, and there was this enormous Stone head staring back at him with these obsidian eyes, and so this
Archaeological discoveries of the decade subsequently archaeologists entered the area and through the late 1970s they dug and they found more than 5,000 fragments of these enormous statues. We have archers, Warriors, and boxers. They are generally about eight feet tall and approach a ton in weight. They are unique in that for their time, there was no other statuary that was in human form, size, and that level of detail and sophistication the monolithic stele.
The neurogic people were the native inhabitants of Sardinia starting around 1750 BCE, and they were not the kind of society that would have writing so we don’t know much beyond their everyday lifestyle, which would have been in many ways similar to what was happening throughout the Mediterranean at the same time incredibly some researcher claim that they were carved by a mysterious civilization that lived on Sardinia nearly 4 000 years ago.
We don’t know why they did this, but there are numerous Legends of Giants all over Sardinia, and the stories go on and on, so this could be the explanation for the eight-foot-tall statues that were carved because these monoliths were made in the likeness of an actual race of giants. One of the strange things about these statues is that they seem to be buried underneath these kinds of stone slabs in this elongated grave as though they were almost like ances
Could the monoliths of Mata prama really be evidence that a civilization of giants once inhabited the iron of Sardinia some believe many researchers think that it’s possible and claim that there are additional clues in folklore throughout the Mediterranean diadoris it’s an ancient Greek historian discussed how there was an ancient bloodline of the Athenian civilization known as the 50 sons of Hercules that made it with a mortal race of women to create a giant bloodline that built these monolithic statues on the island
of Sardinia this story really put the idea into different philosophers heads that this was actually a very Advanced culture that kind of led up to the time of the neurologic people and culminated in the era of the Monty prama Giants the massive model of the samata primer and stories from folklore aren’t the only pieces of evidence to suggest that Giants once lived on Sardinia because there are also mysterious tombs located throughout the island that may have been where their oversized bodies were buried what we see at Monte prama are totally
separate structures for where they buried their deceased and these are called the Giants tombs Tomba de Gigante they are typically made of one very large stone that have a semi hemispherical entry area or front curves inward with the center part having a small hole down at the bottom which is where the skeleton would have been interred as you see these giant tombs what you realize is that’s entirely made of large blocks with a small opening in the base in Tradition these were the burial places designed for Giants they would
actually build the tomb around it is one of the clues that kind of links with the Legends the Giants did exist in Sardinia but there is further evidence that actual skeletons have been found in some of these giant Graves we have accounts from 1901 where there’s a report of four nine foot skeletons being Unearthed in the vicinity in Northern Sardinia and even relatively recently there are reports of three skeletons being dug up in an area called taralba in Southwest Sardinia however the problem is is that most of theevidence has now disappeared they’ve just gone missing basically so you have to question why is this is there a cover-up is it possible that the bones of Giants have actually been hidden from the public an intriguing Theory and it deepens the mystery surrounding the strange towering statues uncovered at montiprava the Giants of montiprama are very unique and enigmatic and sardinias myths and stories about who these people were typically talk about Giants but there’s a lot of things we don’t know about who these peoplewere and so these giant statues are the mystery within that mystery
