Lerici - Castle of San Giorgio

Paolo_1955 (Premium member) > albums > (H.D.R.) Lerici

Album Info:

We know that in the VII B.C. the Gulf was occupied by the Etruscans ranging from Pisa to Capo Mesco who founded the city of Luni to which Lerici linked its history for many centuries. Regarding this we propose some lines from Pantero Pantera, XVII century (maritime captain and author of an unpublished pilot's book that describes the strip of land around 1620):" Lerici, not a very big territory surrounded by walls. From this land anciently called Golfo PortoD'Erice, since it was still called Porto di Luni, from a big city that was of the same name.".

  • Paolo, you are a poet as well as a gifted photographer. Your photos would not be the same if it were not for the captions telling us of the city's history as well! Another Featured Album coming, I see!....Leslie
