Abstract
The study analyses the hypogeum complex of San Gavino a mare in Porto Torres (Sardinia, Italy) and the homonymous small church adjacent to it, a site locally known to have been the burial place of the three Christian martyrs Gavino, Proto and Gianuario, immediately after their decapitation that probably took place in 303 AD under the emperors Diocletian and Maximian. Geological, and speleological features of the hypogeic complex are surveyed. In addition, a preliminary investigation is made of the epigraphic evidence and graffiti found not only in the hypogeum's rock walls, but also in the internal walls of the room behind the presbytery area of the church.

Keyword: epigraphy, glyptography, San Gavino a Mare, Balai.

The Sardinian grass snake (Natrix natrix cetti) is a Critically Endangered snake endemic to Sardinia (Italy), for which information is still scarce. In the present work, we report information obtained from 36 observations of N. n. cetti performed in different areas of the Island. Three different colorations were mainly observed and darker snakes were in general males and big adults; the only juvenile found showed a complete different dorsal colouration. Snakes were observed active during day-time and often far from the aquatic habitats.
