Geography
Monte Arci province of Oristano, Sardinia, Italy

Monte Arci is located just west of the Giara di Gesturi, a basaltic plateau.

Monte Arci had a relevant historical role in Sardinia due to the abundant presence of obsidian, which was used since prehistoric times for weapons and tools, and was later traded outside the island. There are also quarries of pearlite. In the territory of Morgongiori there are breeds of Giara horses.
