Welcome to Sini, in the historic region of Marmilla
Sini is a small municipality in the province of Oristano, in Sardinia, with little over 500 inhabitants. Its history dates back to the Nuragic era and Roman domination, but it was during the Middle Ages that it became part of the Giudicato di Arborea. Subsequently, with the arrival of the Aragonese and feudal lords, it became part of the Incontrada di Marmilla and then of the Marchesato di Quirra. Only in 1839 did it acquire its administrative autonomy as a municipality.
