The salt flats consist of multiple, shallow, stepped, clay-bottom pools that originate from partitioned off seawater. The shallow pools, with added sunshine, heat, and wind, allow for evaporation of the water resulting in an increase in its salinity. Once the saline level of the water reaches a certain amount, it gets pumped with the Archimede's screw to a higher and shallower pool. Historically, windmills produced the energy to drive the pump, now the pumps have electric motors. Over time, the water gradually progresses through multiple pools.

 

The salt is harvested annually, in early fall, before the rainy season starts. In Trapani, they still harvest the salt manually both by skimming the surface and scooping it out with buckets. The very fine salt crystals first skimmed off of the surface of the water in July are most valuable and are called fiore di sale. The salt crystals that are manually scooped from the bottom of the pools, later in the season, are composed of larger, coarser crystals. Those are either sold as coarse salt or can be ground down to a finer composition. Historically, windmills were also used to grind the salt.

 

After it is harvested, the salt is piled alongside the pools to allow for drying. Due to manual harvesting of the salt, as opposed to excavator harvesting, the crystals stay clean and don't need to be further processed or purified. During drying, the salt mounds are covered with terracotta tiles to keep them clean and protect them from rain. The salt is then packaged for sale according to fine and coarse distributions. Any salt that gets dirty is sold as street salt for winter road management.

 

This configuration of a series of shallow evaporation pools, still in use today, was introduced by the Arabs between the C6th and C9th AD, whereas the Phoenicians first produced salt along Sicily's coast either by boiling seawater trapped in the island's many marshes or by waiting for water to evaporate from solely ONE pool. The Museo del Sale in Trapani is a family-owned and managed salt flat which has been producing salt for many generations. The salt pans, there, date from the 1400s.

Syracuse and Ortigia island

to 2013 excursion

Piazza Archimede, fountain of Diana

DSC-2184

the nymph Arethusa is the symbol of Ortigia - the ancient nucleus of Syracuse.

 

Greek mythology has it that Arethusa came across a clear stream in Arcadia and started bathing, not knowing that the stream was actually the River God Alpheus. He fell in love with her but she wanted to stay chaste and fled. Artemis (the goddess of hunting) decided to help her, and transformed her into a fresh water spring. In her watery guise, Artemis fled from Arcadia under the sea coming to the surface at Ortigia in Sicily...

 

This fountain, in Piazza Archimede, depects the moment of her transormation into a spring

Un saluto e un ringraziamento va al DM e ai cari amici Michele e Raffaele :D!

E656.515 del D.L. di Milano Centrale, titolare oggi dell' IC 727 ex "Archimede", da Roma Termini a Siracusa/Palermo Centrale, qui pronto per partire dal binario 16 a Roma Termini.

La plaça de la Independència se situa a Siena, al Terzo di Camollia, just al nord de la Piazza del Campo.

 

De la formació del segle XIX, es caracteritza per una lògia erigida el 1887 sobre el projecte de Archimede Vestri. Darrere d'ella, el palau Ballati és medieval i destaca per la torre rectangular de pedra.

 

En el número 15 es troba l'Accademia dei Rozzi, fundada l'any 1531, i equipada amb teatre amb sala construïda per Alessandro Doveri (1816, ampliada el 1874).

Parco archeologico della Neapolis

Mi sono rifiutato di fotografare un bene così importante totalmente ricoperto da palcoscenico, sipari vari, gradinate fatte di tavole, decine di proiettori.

Ho visto la delusione e lo sconcerto di tanti visitatori giunti insieme a me per contemplare questo teatro.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Da anni il parco archeologico soffre di carenze organizzativo-gestionali che hanno un impatto negativo sui visitatori, nonché diviene oggetto di articoli critici sui quotidiani nazionali.

Il problema maggiore è legato alla scarsa autonomia del parco, la cui autorizzazione spetterebbe alla Regione Sicilia, e di questo si dibatte vanamente da anni.

Ciò determina importanti introiti che non tornano all'Ente rendendo impossibile anche la manutenzione ordinaria, come il taglio delle erbacce o il ripristino di insegne rotte.

Inoltre continui problemi in merito all'organico causano spesso il rischio chiusura nei giorni festivi, e per la stessa ragione il percorso che conduce alla tomba di Archimede è chiuso salvo aprire grazie ad un accordo con il Comune solo nel periodo estivo.

Archaeological Park of Neapolis

I refused to photograph such an important asset totally covered with a stage, various curtains, steps made of tables, dozens of projectors.

I saw the disappointment and bewilderment of so many visitors who came with me to contemplate this theater.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

For years, the archaeological park has suffered from organizational-management deficiencies that have a negative impact on visitors, as well as becoming the subject of critical articles in national newspapers.

The biggest problem is linked to the scarce autonomy of the park, the authorization of which would belong to the Region of Sicily, and this has been debated in vain for years.

This determines important revenues that do not return to the organization, making ordinary maintenance impossible, such as cutting weeds or restoring broken signs.

Furthermore, continuous problems regarding the staff often cause the risk of closure on holidays, and for the same reason the path leading to the tomb of Archimedes is closed except to open thanks to an agreement with the Municipality only in the summer.

Les chats…

Avec Stéphanie nous avons 2 chats femelles. On s'est dit qu'un chat d'appartement doit plus s'amuser s'il a quelqu'un avec qui jouer. Elles sont soeurs jumelles. Kiwi c'est la grosse et grande qui aime bien manger. Elle est plutôt calme et dort tout le temps. C'est difficile la vie de chat :D

Sa soeur Archimède (alias Archi) est plus petite et plus fine. C'est un peu la "Denis la malice" en chat. Elle a presque 3 ans, mais pense encore que sa queue n'est pas une partie de son corps. Autre caractéristique, elle aime le rhum… C'est bizarre pour un chat :)

 

Cats…

With Stéphanie we have to female cats. We thought that in a little apartment it's better to have 2 cats, so they can play together. They are twins. Kiwi is the bigger one, she likes to eat very much. She is calm, and always sleepy. Cat's life is very hard :D

Her sister Archimede (aka Archi) is the smaller and slimy one. She is miss calamity. She is almost 3 years old, and still thinks that her tail is not part of her. An other fact, she loves rum… A little weird for a cat :)
