Di questo Olivastro Millenario, detto anche S'Ozzastru (Olivastro) e il Patriarca, avevo già parlato in una precedente foto ma per la sua eccezionalità mi piace riparlarne, si trova nel comune di Luras, precisamente nella località di Santu Baltòlu. L'Olivastro ha un'età variabile tra i 3800 e i 4000 anni e questo lo rende l'albero più vecchio d'Italia e uno dei più datati dell'Europa. Una leggenda narra che sotto le sue chiome e fra i suoi rami alberghino gli spiriti maligni infatti il grosso ramo a destra altro non è che uno spirito molto accigliato e cattivo con occhi bocca e braccia che Rod scorgerà senz'altro. Il fatto che fosse un albero maledetto l'ha salvato perché chi lo taglia è maledetto per sempre, proprio per questa fama è sopravvissuto dall'epoca nuragica a oggi e ancora resiste. Si narra pure che all'interno del suo tronco, i briganti nascondessero i tesori che rubavano. Data la sua ampiezza, fino a qualche tempo fa, sotto la sua chioma si riparavano circa un centinaio di pecore. La circonferenza del tronco è di ben undici metri e mezzo, mentre il diametro della sua chioma arriva a misurarne 21 ed è alto 14 metri. Dal 1991 è stato dichiarato Monumento Naturale e questo ha evitato che le fiamme lo distruggessero, infatti attualmente si trova in una zona accessibile soltanto se accompagnati dai giovani lavoratori di una cooperativa. Per accedervi è necessario pagare una piccola quota di ingresso. Vicino all'Olivastro, troviamo la moglie, che di anni ne ha solamente duemila e nelle immediate vicinanze si trova il figlio, di soli 500 anni.

A very beautiful biography and account of this centuries-old tree.
Syake lucky he can't talk and move his long arms; I think he'd have to say and give.
Thank my friend Giuseppe to introduce me to pieces of your beautiful Island full of hidden treasures to discover and admire but without touching.
a big hug.

Is it lucky that he cannot speak and move his long arms?
I would like Franco to tell me how many loves were born under his long canopies, to how many brigands to hospitable given and how to do to have the treasures hidden by Blackbeard and what the world was like thousands of years ago and how were the seasons and animals that housed the island, if he could speak I would listen to him for days, it is not the rai, and more :-P

Ma Franco I would like you to tell me how many loves were born under her long hair, how many brigands to hospitable given and how to do to have the treasures hidden by Blackbeard and what the world was like thousands of years ago and what the seasons and animals that housed the island were, if he could speak I would listen to him for days, it's not the rai, it's more :-P

Caro Arrigo, true what you say, but I prefer to imagine, a confirmation could be the opposite :-D.
A warm greeting. ;-)

Hello Joseph,
is a marvel, to be observed to read and meditate. I read with pleasure that he is well guarded and protected which
protever for the future, we will no longer be there while he will continue to live happily and serenely, since
has put on "family" will surely still live for a few thousand years.
A warm greeting, Livio
