Remember, the Genoese had taken over the island, (12th/13th century) and in doing so, they of course wished a certain transformation. One of the most important was the construction of many stone arched bridges, thus, for economical reorganisation, theses bridges saw the day between the 13th and 18th centuries. Mainly single arched, and ‘hunch-backed’, and allowing a distance up to twenty meters, beyond which, the necessity for several arches was necessary. A large number have been classified as ‘historical monuments’ and their contribution in the growth of rural regions cannot be dismissed.
