Monasterace medieval


We welcome a new site dedicated to the history of our country Monasterace medieval , which deals with precisely this in our country's "dark" period.
Dark not because of what is commonly said, namely the Middle Ages as a period of decadence and obscurantism, interpretation now devoid of any foundation, but simply because, unfortunately, little dark and difficult to interpret the tracks are now archaeological and monumental, and especially written documentation.

Best wishes for the work to the authors of this site!

Kaulonia: gifts to a goddess

Kaulonia Pisa

now seems certain that the ancient Ionic temple Kaulonia was dedicated to Aphrodite (Venus), at least as the main deity. Hence the title of this interesting exhibition to be held in Pisa, but unfortunately over the news of the opening, I could not find another, even the duration of the show itself. I hope that the same show will still be repeated in our museum.


In Pisa, Tuesday, January 25 16.30 - Plaster Cast Gallery of Ancient Art, Piazza San Paolo all'Orto: Inaugurazione della mostra “ Doni per una dea. Kaulonia
