Diego Meozzi ofS t o n e p a g e s describes how a visit to a Sardinian farmhouse led to an astonishing revelation by the owner. A late Neolithic painted tomb had recently been discovered nearby but instead of telling the world, the archaeologists who found it chose instead to quietly seal it up.

Fabrika Hill is a natural outcrop representing the north-eastern corner of the ancient city of Nea Paphos, Cyprus.
