PULEGA | PULIGA

All decidedly Sardinian, Pulega, quite rare, is typical of western Sardinia, Puliga, decidedly more widespread, has strains in Sassari, San Vero Milis, Nughedu Santa Vittoria and Narbolia in Oristanese, Carbonia and Iglesias and Settimo San Pietro and Sinnai in Cagliaritano, with good presences also in Gallura, could derive from nicknames originated from the Sardinian word Pulega Archaic (coot, sea Bird), corresponding to the dialect term Puliga with the same meaning. Integrations provided by Giuseppe Concas PULIGA: Pulica, in the central dialects, clean in log. Like in camp. It is the coot from the Latin fulica = coot. The presence in Sardinia of the "P" instead of "F" is justified by the fact that the coot in Sardinian is also called "Pudda" de mari, and, here in Campidano, Puìga. The voice is also present as surname in the ancient documents of the Sardinian language and history. Among the signatories of the Peace of Eleanor, LPDE of 1388, are: Puliga Agustino, Jurato (collaborator of the Maiore, who was the administrator of Justice = Mayor) Ville Gemussi. * Gemussi, a vanished village, also called Gamussi or Genusi, in the agro of Simala.
