Antonio Gramsci, one of the most influential political thinkers of the 20th century, was born in this little Sardinian village on the eastern slopes of Mount Arci. Ales sits in the Marmilla historical region of the Province of Oristano, in an area that holds Sardinia's only source of obsidian. Several historic churches serve a settlement of just a few thousand residents, and UNESCO World Heritage sites lie within the wider region.
