thumb|250px|Castle of Las Plassas, or of Marmilla, which gave its name to the region. Marmilla is a natural region of southern-central Sardinia, Italy.

==Etymology== The name Marmilla comes from the vast rounded hills, probably resembling udders (see Marmilla castle in Las Plassas). Another hypothesis is that according to which given the presence of many marshes in the area, the landscape could appear dotted with "a thousand seas".
