From 1903 to 1917 there was a bloody family feud (disamistade) in Orgosolo. According to tradition, the trigger was the dispute over the inheritance of the richest Orgolese, Diego Moro, who died in 1903. The feud divided the population into two hostile halves and in these years more than 50 people fell victim to the blood feud. After reconciliation seemed to have been achieved through trials in 1917, the disamistade broke out again after about 30 years. The threat of blood revenge, but also the occupation by the Carabinieri and the arbitrary arrests of the “mainland” authorities once again drove men to hide in the mountains and thus often become bandits. They were usually assured of support from the village population against the hated Carabinieri. Orgosolo was declared a “bandits’ nest”. “The headquarters of the outlaws, where people suck in hatred with their mother’s milk” was written in Italian newspapers.
