A last theory that I want to share with you, links the trulli with similar structures in Mycenae and suggest that their origins could be as old as 3000 B.C. Apulia was indeed part of Magna Graecia and thus could have come under that influence. Similarities have been noted between the trulli of Apulia and the "sugarloaf" houses of Syria. It has been suggested that this idea, traveling west, influenced builders in southern Italy who initially used the trulli as tombs. It has also been noted that soldiers returning from the Crusades might have brought these architectural curiosities to Alberobello.
Not much to do here besides visiting this little town called Alberobello and walk through its streets. The point is to visit these special weird houses. Strange architecture and nice people, but that's about it.
