I argue that the evidence of hybridforms of existenceas expressedthrough material culturerepresent different forms of equalitythat were experienced across the island in the Archaic period.

The town of Agrigento and the surrounding Valley of Temples represents a place of world importance because of the historical, archaeological and artistic value of their monuments. Since ancient time the town planning expansion of Agrigento has been controlled by the particular geological set up of the area and the repeated and extensive instability phenomena The safeguard of this precious cultural heritage is seriously threatened by slope failures including falls, rock topples and rock slides involving the calcarenitic outcrops. While rotational and translational slides occur when failures develop in the clay and sandy-silt soils below the calcarenitic levels, involving wide areas. This paper explains the geological and structural set up, the geotechnical aspects and man-made factors that exert major influence on this phenomena, on the stability of the area and on the basal foundation of the temples, above all of the Juno Temple. Key terms: Slope stability, Clay, Biocalcarenite, Cultural heritage, Agrigento, Italy Introduction valley below, today known as the Valley of the Temples. A mighty boundary wall has existed to defend the city since its The town of Agrigento is set in a physically fragile foundation, today considerable remains of it can be found environment between unstable slopes and ancient structures along its course.

  • AGRIGENTO Introduction Founded in 582 BC by Rhodian and Cretan
    AGRIGENTO Introduction Founded in 582 BC by Rhodian and Cretan colonists from nearby Gela, on a site already occupied by Greeks in the 7th century BC, Agrigento (Akragas) was mainly ruled by a succession of tyrants: after Phalaris, in the first half of the 6th century, whose cruelty remained proverbial, by Theron, under whom, allied to the Syracusans, the Agrigentines won the battle against the Carthaginians at Himera, in 480, and his son Thrasydeus who, breaking the alliance with Syracuse, led to the end of his dynasty in 471 BC. In 406 BC, a new conflict with Carthage ended, after a long siege, with the taking and partial destruction of the city, which regained its freedom only thanks to the Corinthian general Timoleon, in 340 BC Contended between Carthaginians and Romans, Agrigento was definitively conquered by the Romans in 210 BC. Flourishing from this date, and until the fall of the Roman Empire, the town gradually became less populated until the 7th century: it was then reduced to a village on the hill of Girgenti (seat of the present town), which was conquered by the Arabs in 829, and later by the Normans in 1086. History The city walls, built in the 6th century BC, enclose an area, considerable for that time, of about 450 hectares, urbanized according to a rigorous orthogonal plan. Protected by the city walls, the sacred buildings of the "Valley of the Temples", all in Doric style, are for the most part arranged at a very regular distance one from the other, for a length of 2 kilometres.

  • Press Release
    PRESS RELEASE FAI Spring Days: Donnafugata’s Pantellerian Garden opens to the public Saturday, March 28 and Sunday, March 29 the Donnafugata Pantellerian Garden will be open to the public for the “Spring Days” held by the FAI (Fondo Ambiente Italiano, The Italian Trust – www.fondoambiente.it). The giardino pantesco – which Donnafugata donated to the FAI last year – stands among the Pantelleria vineyards that are the birthplace of the prestigious Ben Ryé passito (raisin wine) and will be open from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. The guided tours will depart from the Donnafugata winery in the Khamma district and include the vineyards and cellar as well as a special tasting of the winery’s products. With the “Giornate di Primavera” – now in their 17th edition – the FAI’s primary aim has been to call attention to the abandoned state of a great many prize assets of the so-called minor Italy. And it is thanks to the FAI and its delegations across the country that public awareness has grown through the years and that many of these jewels have been recuperated and restored to society. Italy is one great open-air museum and we often forget this. To make us more conscious of it, and look at Italy with newer eyes, the FAI created this special occasion that is repeated each year in the first weekend of spring. More than ever this year the FAI is uniting the Bel Paese from north to south: from the Valtellina to Pantelleria, island of sun and wind where Donnafugata is involved in a project of heroic viticulture aimed at excellence and that sees in the Pantellerian garden the symbol – together with growing vines bush-like on terraced land – of an agriculture to defend and promote.
