    The Legend of 'Di Fara Pizza' - A Classic Italian Story Published on iItaly.org (http://www.iitaly.org) The Legend of 'Di Fara Pizza' - A Classic Italian Story Tommaso Cartia (November 01, 2017) The adventurous and romantic story of Domenico “Dom” DeMarco, who, in 1959 moved from Caiazzo (province of Caserta), to Brooklyn. The story of a simple man who made his historic Di Fara pizzeria into a legend. If you enter the heart of Brooklyn from the Avenue J subway station, you’ll find yourself in a classic Jewish neighborhood, with synagogues and kosher restaurants. It’s the last place you would ever think of finding a typical Italian pizzeria. However, New York is a city of infinite surprises, of contrasts but also of cultural synthesis. And just a few steps away from the Avenue J subway station stop, you’ll find one of the city’s most venerable pizzerias, Di Fara Pizza, a place that has become legendary and in recent years an important destination for tourists and celebrities from all over the world. The secret of this little storefront lies in the golden hands of Domenico DeMarco, a pizza maker from Caiazzo [2], in the province of Caserta, who, since opening the pizzeria in 1964, has been preparing Page 1 of 3 The Legend of 'Di Fara Pizza' - A Classic Italian Story Published on iItaly.org (http://www.iitaly.org) his classic pizzas daily. Domenico’s Story His story is also a classic one. In 1959, Domenico left Caiazzo and followed his father, an American citizen, to the dream metropolis of New York.

Del resto come non rimanere affascinati dai colori della palazzata lungomare, dalla chiesa di S.

Per apprezzare al meglio e contribuire a tutelare il delicato equilibrio tra passato e presente, può essere utile conoscere la storia e l’arte di questo territorio dove natura, enogastronomia, artigianato, attività outdoor e accoglienza sono i fattori chiave di una destinazione che resta nel cuore di chiunque abbia la fortuna di essere suo gradito ospite. 2 3 1.

The analyses were carried out in the context of the project “Innovative methods and technologies for the conservation, valorisation and use of cultural heritage: environmental and archaeological analyses”, within the CULTURA CREA-MIBAC program, which aims to provide innovative methods for conservation and enhancement of cultural heritage through environmental and archaeometric analyses. Preliminarily, using field equipment, non-destructive investigations were carried out to identify constituent, restoration, and/or degradation materials belonging to the wall paintings on the main floor and to assess their conservation state under the current environmental conditions. Environmental monitoring was performed both outdoor (to assess the effects of atmospheric pollution and changes in the climate of the structure) and indoor the rooms of the site (to evaluate the conditions of conservation and fruition).

PHILICA, Article number 962, 10 February 2017. The Walled Town of Alife and the Solstices Amelia Carolina Sparavigna Politecnico di Torino, Italy Abstract: Here we consider an astronomical orientation of the walled town of Alife, in Campania. This town has maintained its Roman original layout and the walls of that period. We will show, by means of SunCalc software, that the main street of Alife, its Decumanus, is aligned along the sunrise/sunset on solstices. Keywords: Italic Towns, Archaeology, Solstices, Saturnalia, Archaeoastronomy, SunCalc. Introduction Alife is a town in the province of Caserta, Campania, located in the Volturno valley. The settlement had a Samnite origin. The Romans rebuilt it as an oppidum, Allifae, with the typical layout based on two mains roads at right angles, that divided it in four parts [1].
