NAUFRAGHI
Dedicated to the people who died in the sea
(Nicola Alesini 2007)

The sales of Naufraghi and Timpuni will be used as an economic fund for preserve  and valorize  the stone circles in Lampedusa that, unfortunately, over the years have been overlooked and in some cases, destroyed as much of the archaeological heritage of the Island.

The collective Askavusa ( askavusa.wordpress.com) and the Archivio Storico Lampedusa( www.archiviostoricolampedusa.it ) present: "Timpuni".

Timpuni is the concert at sunrise organized at the end of the seventh edition of LampedusaInFestival (www.lampedusainfestival.com) in the Large Stone Circle of Lampedusa.

About Large Stone Circles:
Some of the most interesting megalithic structures that can be found on the island of Lampedusa are the remains of prehistoric circular ditches and henges. The poor conditions of the remains makes it difficult to recognize them: a trained eye, help from satellite imagery and computer graphics were needed to discover them.  No example of similar structures are reported anywhere else in the whole Mediterranean Sea while, on the contrary there are several in the continental Europe making those in Lampedusa something very interesting and unique. The first person to mention the existence of a large sub-circular “stone structure” with a 40+ meters diameter on the island of Lampedusa was the archeologist Stefano Diceglie in his 1994 work*:  using aerial pictures he managed to find a circular stone structure of approximately 40 meters diameter in an area of Lampedusa called “Cimitero Vecchio”. Below we post the aerial pictures used by Diceglie to identify these structures: a picture of 1942 (left) and a more recent one from 1989 (showing regrettably how many of the original stones have been removed and likely used for modern residential buildings or modern farming walls).
