To discover the secrets of Mont'e Prama it is no longer enough just to follow the footsteps of the Giants on the Sinis hills. Among those vineyards, planted as a conscious investment in the "prize" of an archaeological find, the millenary history of those statues devastated by the fury of the "damnatio memoriae " is no longer hidden. In that hermitage full of symbols and artifacts the most total abandonment dominates, excavations punctuated by the dropper of the State, with bulldozers deployed on the site, almost as if it were a construction site and not, instead, the place where the millenary history of the People is hidden Sardinian. That desolate land screeches, with the signs of the Romanesque Templars that slap common sense and the sense of the ridiculous, with weeds from the land snatched from the most elementary good conduct, and not just agricultural.
Decay & business
Stride, that devastating degradation, first of all with those copious and infinite expenses that hover like gray and heavy clouds over the management of this "affaire" of the Giants of Mont'e Prama. On one side barred gates, no construction site, no sign of life, not even a modest signpost, on the other hand glossy magazines from the Arabian Nights emerge, two-day fairs paid for as if Dubai were on the Gulf of Cabras, assignments and consultancy to make any municipality on the island shudder, forced to turn off the lights to close the budget circle. Yet here, on the shoulders of the Giants, one of the most important economic and financial sagas of recent years is taking place. The clash between the Mayor of Cabras and the Mont 'e Prama Foundation, the usual state bandwagon created to spend and spread in the name of the Giants, is nothing compared to the avalanche of documents that emerge hour after hour on that river of money all spent private negotiation and directed by the Mont 'e Prama "foundation".
Forgotten Hill
Not even a concrete euro invested in that site abandoned to itself, compared to millions of euro, divided into streams and nabob contracts, for companies in some cases intertwined and overlapping, all contracts stipulated between Naples, Pisa, Milan, Cagliari and Sassari . Unlike the history of the Giants, still to be written, the operation we are dealing with is marked by documents that "sing", unassailable, imprinted by the impregnable adage of the "scripta manent". Dozens and dozens of acts that open unexplored chapters of public spending, because this is the one managed by a Foundation that receives copious funding from the most varied institutions, starting with the generous Sardinian Region. Just one figure is enough to understand the grandeur of this expenditure consumed with both hands with "technical-accounting determinations" which can hardly be the result of the imagination of officials and managers. In just two days, excluding ceremonial clippings, half a million euros were spent a day. Much more than what has been spent on the excavations of Mont 'e Prama in the last ten years.
