Abbasanta (Latin: Ad Medias) is a town and commune in the province of Oristano, Sardinia (Italy). It is 313 metres above sea level. The whole Abbasanta's plateau is rich in archaeological monuments. Very close to the village is the nuraghe of Losa. Abbasanta sits on a lava plateau rich in cork oaks, olive trees and lentischi. The plateau arose from the lava flow of the Montiferru volcano. The landscape of the lava plateau is characterised by pastures that are enclosed by dry-stone walls which surround the tancas built in the 18th century. In the surrounding countryside, there are still some typical shelters (pinnete) made of stones and boughs by the shepherds. In the village the stone houses are characteristic. They are low and with few floors, without sheds, but usually with a back courtyard where some space is reserved for the domestic animals.
