| • | Sardinia (Sardigna, Sardinna or Sardinnia in the Sardinian language, Sardegna in Italian, Sardenya in Catalan), is the second largest island in the Mediterranean Sea (Sicily is the largest), between Italy, Spain and Tunisia, south of Corsica. It forms part of Italy. At the beginning of the nuragic age circa 1500 BC it was first called "Hyknusa" (latinized Ichnusa) by the Greeks probably meaning island (nusa) of the Hyksos, the people who had just been expelled by Amasis I of Egypt circa 1540 BC and were by now looking for a new home."Sandalyon" was her second name probably due to its shape, recalling a footprint.Last and present name has been Sardinia, for the Shardana, (who also had been expelled in Egypt by Ramses III circa 1180 BC ) Source: [wikipedia: sardinia] |
