Cabras, Municipality in Sardinia, Italy
The municipality extends across 102 square kilometers of land, encompassing the Sinis peninsula and two remote islets, Catalano and Mal di Ventre.
After the abandonment of Tharros in the 11th century due to North African raids, settlers established their residence near a castle belonging to Arborensian judges.
The National Archaeological Museum features numerous artifacts from the Nuragic period, including warrior statues from Monti Prama predating ancient Greek sculptures.
The territory includes multiple natural lagoons protected under the Ramsar Convention, with dedicated walkways for watching pink flamingos and other bird species.
Local fishermen preserve ancient techniques using boats called 'is fassonis,' constructed from sun-dried marsh grasses for navigation in the Stagno di Cabras.
