  • Urban Planning in the Greek Colonies in Sicily and Magna Graecia
    Urban Planning in the Greek Colonies in Sicily and Magna Graecia (8th – 6th centuries BCE) An honors thesis for the Department of Classics Olivia E. Hayden Tufts University, 2013 Abstract: Although ancient Greeks were traversing the western Mediterranean as early as the Mycenaean Period, the end of the “Dark Age” saw a surge of Greek colonial activity throughout the Mediterranean. Contemporary cities of the Greek homeland were in the process of growing from small, irregularly planned settlements into organized urban spaces. By contrast, the colonies founded overseas in the 8th and 6th centuries BCE lacked any pre-existing structures or spatial organization, allowing the inhabitants to closely approximate their conceptual ideals. For this reason the Greek colonies in Sicily and Magna Graecia, known for their extensive use of gridded urban planning, exemplified the overarching trajectory of urban planning in this period. Over the course of the 8th to 6th centuries BCE the Greek cities in Sicily and Magna Graecia developed many common features, including the zoning of domestic, religious, and political space and the implementation of a gridded street plan in the domestic sector. Each city, however, had its own peculiarities and experimental design elements. I will argue that the interplay between standardization and idiosyncrasy in each city developed as a result of vying for recognition within this tight-knit network of affluent Sicilian and South Italian cities. This competition both stimulated the widespread adoption of popular ideas and encouraged the continuous initiation of new trends. ii Table of Contents: Abstract. …………………….………………………………………………………………….... ii Table of Contents …………………………………….………………………………….…….... iii 1.

The Duchess Guide In his quest for the ultimate Sicily itinerary, James Miller decided to consult one of the island’s noble ambassadors, Nicoletta Polo, the Duchess of Palma isiting somewhere as special as Sicily can present a dilemma as there are so many guide books and television programmes covering the Mediterranean’s most majestic island. You can either find yourself spoilt for choice or totally bewildered when Vconsidering what to see and do. And no trip to Sicily should be squandered by not having prepared an amazing itinerary of activities to enjoy. An enviable problem I’ll confess, but one I intended to solve nevertheless, so I met with one of the island’s most prominent and cultured ambassadors; a lady who can offer the ‘discerning’ visitor an insight into the true Sicily and its captivating appeal, the Duchess of Palma, Nicoletta Polo. Nicoletta and I are old friends from my previous adventures in 1. Ortigia First on the list was Ortigia. Nicoletta Polo Lanza Tomasi, Duchess Sicily and whenever I return to see her I’m welcomed with such “I adore Ortigia,” Nicoletta of Palma di Montechiaro warmth it’s like visiting a kind and benevolent aunt, although warmly expressed her I don’t boast such lofty connections with my own family as sentiments about this small Nicoletta is an Italian noblewoman.
