The Archaeological Museum of Genna Maria,
which stands in a magnificent, old building of great historical
interest known as "Monte di Soccorso" (XIX century AD),
hosts the archaeological finds from the excavation work carried
out at the Nuragic complex of "Genna Maria".
The finds from the Nuragic civilisation prevalently date back
to the Iron Age. There are splendid pyriform vases with geometric
decorations, clay ovens and other well preserved vases, besides
material of great interest from the Roman Era.
There are also numerous exhibits from Nuragic settlements discovered
in other districts of the Marmilla area, among which Siddi, Collinas,
Lunamatrona, Barumini,
Villanovafranca
and Gesturi.
