Source-derived summary

Agugliastra or Ogliastra was an administrative subdivision of Pisan and Aragonese Sardinia.

History

The territory of Ogliastra, part of the Judicate of Cagliari as a curatoria until 1258 and then of the Judicate of Gallura (1288) and the Republic of Pisa (1288–1324), constituted until the Aragonese conquest of Sardinia an important area of influence of Pisa which included all the eastern coast of the island.

During the Pisan domination and the subsequent Aragonese rule, Ogliastra's territory was often incorrectly named "Judicate of Ogliastra" or Ollaste.

Editorial analysis

Why this record matters

Evidence profile

The citation trail is more important than the brevity of the summary: it shows where individual claims can be examined in context. The source revision retrieved here is dated Dec 15, 2025. The linked authority identifier is Q3769126. None of the 0 selected statements returned an explicit reference. The first chronological checks are 1258, 1288 and 1324.

Critical limits

The absence of detail may reflect summary conventions rather than a lack of surviving documentation. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
