L'era del cinghiale bianco () is an album by Italian singer-songwriter Franco Battiato. It was released in 1979 by EMI Italiana.
This album marks the return of Battiato to pop, after a period in which he substantially produced experimental music (1972–1978). The title song's theme, the "white boar", is inspired by an ancient Celtic myth.
