Were the Anunnaki the Architects of the Towers and Tombs of the Giants of Sardinia?
Sardinia is one of the most geologically ancient lands in Europe, inhabited during the Upper Paleolithic era, home to a Nuragic civilization that left nothing behind by way of writing. Folklore paint these people as seafarers, perhaps mercenaries - Srdn- was recorded in 16th century BC Egyptian texts — who may have originated from Asia-Minor.

Then there is Sardinian language. Many words, dialects, names of mountains and rivers have no basis in Greek, Latin or Punic, nor Semitic or pre-Indo European. They do, however, show analogies with Basque and North Libyan languages and dialects along the Danube. Given that Sardinians’ physiognomy is also the most dolichocephalic, with a high incidence of long heads, and the DNA of its population from 10,000 BC surviving in the present population — a unique genetic heritage — suggests their language may be a remnant of a former, and now lost, civilization.
