The Egadian
Islands were colonized about 10'000 B.C. as attested by graffiti and paintings
in caverns in Favignana and Levanzo. At that time the entire Egadian Archipelago
was connected to Sicily. The Trapani zone and the egadian islands were
an important settling of the phoenicians and punic's up to about 100 B.C.
followed by the Romans, 810 A.D. by Arabs, 1120 by the Normans and 1600
by the Spanish. Favignana was an important tuna fish fishing base since ancient times. More information about the Egadian Islands at: http://www.egadi.com |
