[QUOTE]Originally posted by IronLion: [QB] History of Sicily by Paolo Mazzesi The history of Sicily begins with the history of Europe, during the upper Paleolithic (20,000 – 10,000 bC): it was populated by peoples of the modern human type. Settlements and new civilizations followed in waves, then followed by new ones over and over: the Phoenician, the Greeks, the Arabs (the Moors)….. The most ancient Sicilian culture we know is dated around 10,000 bC (as established from rock carvings at Mount Pellegrino), followed by others until in the Eneolithic (Copper age, 3,500-3,000 bC) the island began to be subjected to ever increasing influences by oriental and Mediterranean civilizations. Sicily used to have a different name before the current one (we would call it Sicania): [b]it originated from the “Sicani” people[/b] : anthropologists tell us that the “Sicani” had nothing in common with the “Siculi”, who came later. [b]The former originated from Libya, and geologists admit they could have come to the western part of the island when a strip of land emerged during glacial eras used to connect Africa to Sicily, therefore these people where of Camitic origin. About 1,000 bC these people were subjugated ed by the Carthaginese. [/b] :D .......... [/QB][/QUOTE]
