The Mesumundu Archaeological Park, near Siligo in the province of Sassari, Sardinia, covers over a hectare in an alluvial plain bordered by basaltic plateaus. It lies beside an ancient path that existed in the protohistoric age and was later rearranged during the Roman period. The site is crossed by the Riu Mannu of Porto Torres. The complex is notable for the remains of a Roman bath building, later transformed into a Byzantine church dedicated to the Saints Cosmas and Damian, preserving a distinctive domed structure. The park also includes evidence of a Roman villa and a necropolis, offering a layered glimpse into the area's continuous occupation from the Roman era through the early medieval period.
