Dolianova (Sardinian: Patiolla) is an Italian town and comune in the Metropolitan City of Cagliari, Sardinia. The town was established on 25 June 1905 from the fusion of two centers: Sicci San Biagio and San Pantaleo. Its economy is based on agriculture (wine and olive oil). The name "Dolianova" has obscure origins. It is thought to be related to the Latin "Pars Olea" (Place of Oil).
