Bosa, Italy

Bosa is a town in the province of Oristano, part of the Sardinia region of Italy. Bosa is situated about two-thirds of the way up the west coast of Sardinia, on a small hill, about 3 kilometers inland on the north bank of the Temo River. The town has maintained a population of around 9,000 people for a significant amount of time, but has an urban character that has differentiated it from other locations in Sardinia. It has highly stratified classes, has acted as a market and political center, and has had some rudimentary industry. It also has had successful agriculture and fishing, because it is in the river valley near the coast, surrounded by hills and highland plateaus. In the last thirty years, Bosa has became tied to capitalist society and the market, importing much of their goods and exporting much less.
