Ground Stone Tools from Serra Orlando (Morgantina) and Stone Axe Studies in Sicily and Southern Italy
Ground and polished stone axes in southern Italy received little attention after a period of lively interest in the late 19th century. The great number of axes from archaeological sites and collections suggests widespread manufacture and exchange on a considerable scale. In eastern Sicily the production of basalt axes was long-lived, beginning in the Neolithic (Stentinello phase) and reaching a peak in the Copper and Early Bronze Ages. Greenstone…
Volcanism in Italy: The Hazard Implications of Hydromagmatic Eruptions
There are several active volcanoes in Italy and during historic times these have given rise to a variety of different kinds of eruption. Hydromagmatism is one kind of volcanism which poses a particular threat in Italy. Hydromagmatism results from the interaction between magma and an external source of water, which can transform relatively mild volcanism into violent explosive events. Pyroclastic surges, blasts of gas and pyroclastic material that…
Mount Etna Volcano: Environmental Impact and Problems of Volcanic Prediction
Mount Etna, the largest continental volcano in the world, has a substantial environ? mental impact on the local area. Indeed, the Etna region is one of the most prosperous and densely populated parts of Sicily. This derives in large measure from the ample water supply from the porous lavas and the fertile volcanic soils. Nowhere on the slopes of the volcano, however, is free from the risk of damage by eruptive activity. The volcanic hazard, which…
