Historical and geographical features

At 750 meters above sea level, Buddusò is famous above all for its white granite quarries and its territory is covered with pastures, cork oaks and dense Mediterranean scrub.

It is crossed by the Rio Mannu which flows into Lake Coghinas and by the Rio Altana which flows into the Tyrrhenian Sea.

From the Neolithic to today

The territory, the usual venue for special stages of the Rally Italia Sardegna world championship, was inhabited starting from the Neolithic period, as evidenced by a dozen Domus de Janas inside the town and over 50 collections in necropolises, scattered in the countryside. The following period is abundantly 'told' by 32 nuraghes, some of which are still well preserved. Above all the Nuraghe Loelle, 7 km from the village, built with worked ashlars, with steps and corridors that run on two internal floors. Alongside there are two small tombs of Giants.
