Pantelleria
In the middle of the Mediterranean sea, the Island of Pantelleria has been conquered several times, occupied and then left by different peoples. Visiting its coasts and lands, you can find out the marks left by those who lived there. The most ancient visitors go back to 5000 years ago.During the Neolitic Age the colonizers left some archeological finds called "Sesi", which are funeral monuments and a fortress called the "Muro Alto", located nearby Mursia village.
Pantelleria should be the mythical Ogigia island of the Odissey where Ulisse landed (nowadays the harbour of Scauri) and felt prisoner of the Nimph Calypso love.
