The Sacred Well of Predio Canopoli, Perfugas, Sardinia, Italy,

Late Bronze Age, 1500-1250 BCE,

At least 3,500 years old, The Sacred Well of Predio Canapoli was discovered in 1924.

The Temple is recognized for its architectural refinement within Nuragic Sardinian culture.

The structure features a isodomic building technique, made from stones of uniform size with remarkable precision.

Its layout includes a narrow staircase leading to the well chamber, an atrium, stone seats on the walls, and a block table with a tray and channel carved into it.

The well temple was constructed with precisely cut limestone ashlar squared stones sourced from the Laerru area. In many Nuragic constructions, there is an ambition to achieve symmetrical perfection, showcased by their skillful masonry and precision.

The well itself is part of a larger sacred complex that includes remnants of a village and a megaron-style temple. Surrounding the Predio Canapoli are scarce 'ritual deposits' with artifacts recovered that have been dated to be from as early as the 9th century BC.

Sardinia is rich with preserved history and the Sacred Well of Predio Canapoli is a great example of ancient Sardinian architecture

I've come to say farewell in the place life tore us apart 21 years ago today. So many things were broken inside me and around me since then. The man you knew no longer exists. I promised to love you until I died, and a long time afterward. And I will always love you. But I can no longer bring you happiness... I live my last moments with you. Everything, afterward, will merely be memories. I'll carry them with me upon the seas, the only place where all is horizon and where there is no trace of men. Live, and be happy. Never forget, until the day that fate unites us once again, all of human wisdom is contained in two words: Wait, and hope. Edmond Dantès, Count of Monte Cristo.
