		The general attitude of speakers to their Sardinian language is that it is slowly declining, that it is constantly losing ground in every sphere of society, that the younger generations use it less frequently than their elders and that it is becoming less and less useful in modern Sardinian society.
		Despite this constant regression, Sardinian remains a living language, as is demonstrated by the results of a survey conducted in 1986, which showed that almost 55% of Sardinian families were still speaking the language in the second half of the eighties.

		Sardinian language is deeply conservative, ancient, Latin-based and historically influenced from Spanish and Catalan.
		But in the recent regional law (No. 26, 1997) voted by the Sardinian Parliament, the Gallurese (with the Sassarese) is not considered as a Sardinian language but in the same category as Catalan language of Alghero or Tabarchino.
		In this hypothesis we were considering Sardinian as if Corsican could modify it, but the contrary could be possible, as well, and there could also be a possible Sardinian influence on Corsican.

		The toy-like models reveal the variety of Sardinian shipbuilding and seafaring, including oared longships, flat-bottomed craft, round merchant vessels, and sewn wooden hulls; from the 9th century (at least), they shared the Tyrrhenian Sea with Villanovan longships, as attested by clay models found in the ship-owners' graves at Tarquinia, Cerveteri and Bisenzio.
		Further strong evidence of close ties between some Sardinians and some Etruscan centers is furnished by Gilda Bartoloni (343-362) in her analysis of the tombs of Populonia and their contents.
		She emphasizes the correlation of imports (over 130 Sardinian bronzes in Etruria) with prime metallurgical regions, from the 8th century on; in addition to bronze ornaments, swords and daggers reflect high-level social and military interactions, while model quivers indicate links in votive religion.
