NOTES

The fragment in panel 1 looks like a Hexagon, just like the power items from the official Martin Mystère books, but it's just a nod.

The "boxer" statues are known in Italian as "pugilatori" (instead of the more common "pugili").

The most ancient civilizations of Sardinia are called "Nuraghe Civilizations" after the Nuraghe, which is the typical building of their age, short and massive, very resilient.

Vincent Von Hansen's "Umpah" comes from a story that USA president Truman used to tell about a campaign stop on an Indian reservation:
After each promise of what he’d do for Native Americans if elected, the crowd shouted “Oompah! Oompah!”
The louder this chorus grew, the more inspired Truman’s speech became.
As he left, the President had to cross a corral which had been filled with horses.
“Careful,” his escort told him.  “Don’t step in the oompah.”
