edge of the Giudicato village on the slopes of the hill (c) named Via
delle Tende, the cathedral (A) and the bishopric site (V), the Seminar
(R), the church of Santa Maria Maddalena (M); other alleys were
Vico Bulvaris (a-a), via Anzena (b- b), and via Franzina (b-c), and sa
Piatta a market street/square (d-d) parallel to the Temo river. The
enclosed courts are similar in typology to the warehouses (F), one
of which perhaps corresponded to the one petitioned by Marseilles
in 1250. The area of Santa Croce (G) is settled after the sixteenth
century in regular blocks. Outside the city walls are the Carmelite
complex (D) and, at the southwestern corner of the walls, the
medieval river port. (From Cadinu 2001, table 42, p. 130) 524
19.11 Large courts outside the first medieval walls indicate inn functions
and can be recognized as places for the fondaci of the mercantile city.
They are easily identifiable by their form and structure, divided into
small cells arranged on two levels. Shown from left, Cagliari inns, an
Istanbul inn/warehouse, courts in Sassari; below from left, Oristano
courts, Bosa courts with “corte Intro” (A) (from Cadinu 2001, tables 52
and 53) 526
19.12 Iglesias. Eastern side of the walls, thirteenth-fourteenth
century 531
19.13 Aerial view of Cagliari. The Castello district founded by the Pisans
in 1216 seen from the waterfront, now enclosed by large bul-
warks, which were built from the middle of the sixteenth century
onwards 534
19.14 The original plan of Cagliari’s Castello, based on three parallel curved
streets and governed by the main street called ruga Mercatorum (a-a)
between the two gate/towers (Cadinu 2001, p. 105). In the diagram on
the left: the cathedral (A) and Archbishop’s Palace (B) 535
19.15 Cagliari, virtual cruciform plan that controlled the foundation of
the two new towns: the Pisan Castello of Stampace (pre-1263 to the
west, with the street and church of Sant’Efisio- 8) and Villanova
(pre-1275 to the east, with the street and church of San Giovanni—5).
The convents of the mendicant orders of San Francesco (7) and San
Domenico (6) were located in the two neighborhoods. Number (10)
indicates the outlying San Saturno church. Number (9) indicates
the church of San Pietro de Portu, known since 1089 and likely the
western edge of the city of Santa Igia, the capital of the Cagliari
Giudicato (from Cadinu, 2001) 536
19.16 Iglesias and its urban plan, along the ruga mercatorum (dashed gray
lines) in the years before 1250, in connection with the Castello (A).
