Antonello Murgia

Tuvixeddu is the largest Punic necropolis in the Mediterranean. What remains of the Necropolis is only a fragment of beauty that has survived the abuses of time, history and builders. It is a cemetery where one has the impression that it is night even during the day. Eternal ghosts, like evicted tenants, tell this drama: whispers and cries of this fleetingness. And they make the verses taken from "La sera del dì di festa" by Giacomo Leopardi: “and think how everything in the world passes and almost leaves no trace".
