Barbagia is a wide mountainous region of Central Sardinia that extends on the flanks of the Gennargentu. The landscape barbaricino lends itself to a physical description fairly homogeneous: the flat areas are nonexistent and strong is the relief, albeit modest altitude. The nature of the rocks gives the character recognizable mountains, ranging from shale of Gennargentu to Supramonte, silvery Moon by fragile limestone benches of Lula to arditi limestone towers of Barbagia of Seulo and Barbagia of Belvì. The region belongs almost entirely to the province of Nuoro. The municipalities of Barbagia language and traditions are strongly conservative centers. In a few communities in Sardinia, as well as barbarian, is strong and ingrained sense of belonging to the history of their places, as it has dogged the memory of their past.
