The building, in excellent condition, offers 120 sqm of habitable surface with two bedrooms and is surrounded by three beautiful panoramic stone-paved terraces. The land (1.0 ha) is landscaped as a garden all around the country house and also houses the 10 × 5 m pool. The nearby town (4km; 5') provides all the necessary services and several of the most notable centers of Tuscany and Umbria can be reached with a short travel by car (Umbertide, Città di Cas- tello, Cortona, Montepulciano, Perugia, Assisi, Siena, Florence...). Lake Trasimeno is just 30' away by car. The country house (120 sqm – 1,291 sqft, 2 bedrooms and 1 bedroom) is laid over two floors and features on the ground floor a kitchen with outdoor loggia and a bathroom; a staircase then leads to the first floor where there is an ample living room that leads in turn into the two bedrooms. The building is in excellent structural condition and readily habitable. Internal finishes, in good shape as well, dates back to the 1980s and would benefit from a general update (albeit this is not necessary if you want to live in the house immediately). Stone walls have been cleaned and valor- ized, as well as the stone-paved terraces surrounding the building. On the northern side of the building is a cozy pergola covered in vines, a very nice corner for pleasant outdoor moments. Just a few steps from the farmhouse is the 10 × 5 m swimming pool, surrounded by a stone- paved sunbathing area and well-maintained flowerbeds with typical Umbrian essences (lavender, rosemary...). The land surrounding the house, roughly 1.0 hectare in total, is covered in gardens all around the building while further away there are trees. Three stone-paved terraces allow relaxing in the open and offer a beautiful view of the green Umbrian countryside. © Agenzia Romolini Immobiliare s.r.l.

It is the fourth Italian largest lake and is one of the largest endorheic basins in western Europe. Because of its shallow depth and the absence of natural outflows, the lake, in historical times, alternated from periods of floods to strong decreases of the water level during periods of prolonged drought. Lake water is characterised by a NaCl composition and relatively high salinity. The geochemical and isotopic monitoring of lake water from 2006 to 2018 shows the presence of well-defined seasonal trends, strictly correlated to precipitation regime and evaporation. These trends are clearly highlighted by the isotopic composition of lake water (δ18O and δD) and by the variations of dissolved mobile species.

    TUSCANY ARCHAEOLOGICAL ITINERARIES A Journey from Prehistory to the Roman Age ONCE UPON A TIME... That’s how fables start, once upon a time there was – what? A region bathed by the sea, with long beaches the colour of gold, rocky cliffs plunging into crystalline waters and many islands dotting the horizon. There was once a region cov- ered by rolling hills, where the sun lavished all the colours of the earth, where olive trees and grapevines still grow, ancient as the history of man, and where fortified towns and cities seem open-air museums. There was once a region with ver- dant plains watered by rivers and streams, surrounded by high mountains, monasteries, and forests stretching as far as the eye could see. There was, in a word, Tuscany, a region that has always been synonymous with beauty and nature, art and history, especially Medieval and Renaissance history, a land whose fame has spread the world over. And yet, if we stop to look closely, this region offers us many more treasures and new histories, the emotion aroused only by beauty. Because along with the most famous places, monuments and museums, we can glimpse a Tuscany that is even more ancient and just as wonderful, bear- ing witness not only to Roman and Etruscan times but even to prehistoric ages. Although this evidence is not as well known as the treasures that has always been famous, it is just as exciting to discover. This travel diary, ad- dressed to all lovers of Tuscany eager to explore its more hidden aspects, aims to bring us back in time to discover these jewels.

  • Umbra Institute Summer Archaeologyprospectus3gen
    Umbra Institute Trasimeno Archaeology Field School, Summer 2015; in cooperation with DePauw University SUMMER 2015 DIG IN ITALY: ARCHAEOLOGICAL STUDY, RESEARCH, AND COMMUNITY OUTREACH GENERAL DESCRIPTION: This interdisciplinary program focuses on the topography, history, and material culture of the Lake Trasimeno region. Located in Umbria, the "Green Heart of Italy," Lake Trasimeno's cultural heritage and historical significance extends from the prehistoric period, to the famous battle between Carthage and Rome on its shores in 217 BC, to the modern day. The summer archaeology program, which saw its first iteration in 2014, is based in Castiglione del Lago, a modern town whose Medieval heritage is visible today and whose Roman and Etruscan past waits to be uncovered. Students enroll in two courses, ARFW 350: Archaeological Field Workshop and ARCL 340: Archaeological Heritage of Lake Trasimeno. • The Archaeological Field Workshop provides students with hands-on experience in archaeological field methods, artifact analysis, survey, and heritage protection and presentation. In 2015, two components to this course are planned. Students will gain experience in both components, which are supervised by Umbra Institute faculty, DePauw University faculty, and professional archaeologists, and are supported by officials and citizens of the Comune of Castiglione del Lago. o Excavation and survey in and around Castiglione del Lago and its castle that overlooks the shore of Lake Trasimeno, e.g., the small church inside the castle; a probable Roman villa on the south slopes of the ridge outside the castle fortifications; località Rigutini, a likely sanctuary site along the shore north of town; or località Poggio S. Maria, on slopes overlooking Lago di Chiusi, where bronze coins and stamps have been recovered.

  • UMBRIA Is a Region of Central Italy
    UMBRIA Is a region of central Italy. It includes lake Trasimeno and Marmore Falls, and is crossed by the River Tiber. The regional capital is Perugia. Umbria is known for its landscapes, traditions, history, culinary de- lights, artistic legacy, and influence on culture. The region is characterized by hills, mountains, valleys and historical towns such as the university centre of Perugia, Assisi, a World Heritage Site associated with St. Francis of Assisi, the Basilica of San Francesco and other Franciscan sites, works by Giotto and Cimabue, Terni, the hometown of St. Valentine, Norcia, the hometown of St. Benedict, Città di Castello, main center of the early Renaissance situated in the Tiber High Valley, Gubbio, the hometown of t. Ubaldo, Spoleto, Orvieto, Todi, hometown of the Fran- ciscan mystic Jacopone da Todi, Castiglione del Lago, Narni, Amelia, and other small cities. Umbria is bordered by Tuscany to the west and the north, Marche to the east and Lazio to the south. Partly hilly and mountainous, and partly flat and fer- tile owing to the valley of the Tiber, its topography includes part of the central Apennines In antiquity, the plain was covered by a pair of shallow, interlock- ing lakes, the Lacus Clitorius and the Lacus Umber. They were drained by the Romans over several hun- dred years. The eastern part of the region, being crossed by many faults, has been often hit by earth- quakes: the last ones have been that of 1997 (which hit Foligno, Assisi and Nocera Umbra) and those of 2016 (which struck Norcia and the Valnerina).

This distinctive difference immediately led to the question of “where did the Etruscans originate?” Where did the Etruscans originate? • Some Greeks held that the Etruscans came from Lydia, a kingdom of western Anatolia (or modern day Turkey). • In the 19th c, it was discovered that most of the languages of Europe belonged to one big language family called Indo- European but Etruscan was not one of them. – The Etruscan language is unique in the ancient Greco- Roman world. There are no known parent languages to Etruscan, nor are there any modern descendants. As Romans took control, Latin became the dominant language. – We have no surviving histories or literature in Etruscan.

  • Excerpt from the Road to Peace in Assisi
    Excerpt from The Road to Peace in Assisi Following Francis and Clare In the Footsteps of the Lesser Christ By Bret Thoman, SFO Chapter I – War They shall beat their swords into plowshares and their spears into pruning hooks. ISAIAH 2, 4 (1198 Anno Domini) The knightly, fortified Offreduccio tower-like palace soared in the air in the upper part of Assisi. This was the home of Clare. It rivaled the height of the façade and bell tower of the adjacent cathedral of San Rufino then being refurbished. 1 The women of the household – Lady Ortolana, Lady Pacifica, Lady Bona Guelfuccio – were working quietly at their chores with the girls when Clare’s uncle Monaldo abruptly burst through the door to their chamber. He looked terrified as he shouted, “The emperor is dead! Henry VI suddenly died! We’re finished!” Clare’s mother, Ortolana, became alarmed and immediately started reciting prayers. So did the others. Clare’s younger sister, Catherine, started crying. Clara , Chiara, Clare – light, clear, clarity. She had always been devoted to the holy life, even as a child. She was only four years old, but understood things far beyond her age. She knew what could happen as a result of the young emperor’s untimely death. The Offreduccios were knightly, tracing their ancestry to Charlemagne and King Pepin. i They were one of just twenty prominent families in Assisi – the Majores (Greaters) – the ruling class. They were aligned with the now deceased German emperor, whose successor was his powerless three-year-old son. With a power vacuum in Germany, Assisi stood to lose imperial protection.

  • Discovering Umbria Discovering Umbria Terni — Marmore Falls
    Discovering Umbria Discovering Umbria Terni — Marmore Falls Discovering Umbria Umbria is the perfect destination where to spend your holidays. Nature and parks, cities rich in art and culture, outdoor sports, along with internationally famous events and its food and wine will make your stay unforgettable. Umbria is a land of balance, able to assemble a thousand facets and a thousand different souls into a single fresco, a blend of man and nature, intense spirituality and secular pride. Every location has a unique identity, the result of millennia of civilisation that have left dense layers of memory and timeless masterpieces throughout the land: Umbrian, Etruscan, Sabine and Roman first and the extraordinary period of the Middle Ages, and then the Renaissance. The rural ingeniousness patiently chiselled the environment, reclaiming land, tilling and planting olive groves and vineyards that not only produce prized oils and wines but have become the symbol of the region. Dotted with medieval towns and silent hermitages, the Umbrian hills offer fascinating sceneries. In Umbria you need only travel a few kilometres to discover places of unspoilt wilderness, with centuries-old beech woods, deep caves, and mountains popolate by ancient legends. And Umbria is also rich in water: it rises in springs and mountain lakes, runs in rivers that carve impressive rocky gorges, and broadens out into wetlands and man-made lakes that are magically transformed into nature reserves. Lake Trasimeno, the gentle flowing of the Tiber, and the leaping falls of the Cascata delle Marmore all seem to have been created intentionally to inspire poets and painters.

  • A 7 Day Tour Around Lake Trasimeno April 22-28, 2017
    A 7 day tour around Lake Trasimeno April 22-28, 2017 Total length: about 145 km Total altitude gain: about 3,330 m Departure time: daily, 09:00 am Walking time: 5-7 h per day (plus rest time) The third edition of Trasimeno Trek has been enriched with a lot of new proposals! This year we have developed a truly emotional tour, allowing plenty of time for meeting the people, passionate and dedicated men and women who live and work around the lake. For this reason it is essential to walk the whole circuit and spend the evenings with our hosts, who keep their land alive with labour and revive old memories with story telling. Slowly we will go on a journey through space and time, following the magic of trails and threads that since times immemorial have tied together water and land: on our path we will meet fishermen, farmers, village people, and we will pause for a chat, a taste of their products, a glass of wine... simple and excellent fare, nourishing our body and soul. We will spend the night in campgrounds, pensioni, farm lodges, right at the water edge or high on the hills above the lake. We will go boating: on an evening visit to Isola Maggiore – with dinner included – and with local fishermen to participate in their fishing activities. We will explore the Waterbird Sanctuary “Oasi La Valle” and visit the most remarkable medieval towns and villages surrounding the lake (Castiglione del Lago, Tuoro sul Trasimeno, Passignano sul Trasimeno, Monte Colognola, Monte del Lago, San Feliciano, San Savino, Mongiovino, Panicale, Paciano).
