Traces of Magna Greece

Excavation in the history of Magna Greek culture.

Saturday 21 February 2015, at the Diocesan Historical Archive located in the premises of the Archiepiscopal Curia, a seminar of studies was held entitled “Construction of documentary paths on classical antiquities” included in the Project “Traces of Magna Grecia – Network of Documents, Books and Periodicals of Reggio Calabria” organized by the Foundation Avvenire di Calabria. After the greetings of the director, Dr. Maria Pia Mazzitelli, Dr. Pasqualina Adele Marzotti has retraced over the centuries the troubled history of archaeological and paper evidence of the past magno-greek Calabria: from the use of classical architectural elements in buildings of later times, to the sad dispersion of paper documents in various locations outside Calabria. Documents kept at the Diocesan Historical Archives of Reggio Calabria-Bova have been exhibited in support of the seminary.
