The Monterozzi Necropolis

HOME > '16 > '15 > '14 > '13 > '12

The Monterozzi Necropolis in Tarquinia, a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 2004, is an archaeological site of considerable historical interest, as it is made up of numerous Etruscan mound tombs. The original paintings of the VII - II century are still preserved in the funerary rooms. A. C., sealed with glass doors and periodically controlled by restorers. The wall paintings represent the interior of the ancient Etruscan houses and some convivial scenes of magical-religious character. The most famous are in the "Warrior" and "Hunting and Fishing" tombs (so named for the object of pictorial representations).

TOMBE ETRUSCHE

On the ancient tombs
Trumpets play jazz,
Singing the divine music.

For this, little has changed:
To employ modern modes
To enjoy the usual passions.

How the waves follow
And together form the sea,
So human generations.

As they pass similarly to each other,
Make the image earthy
Of the unknown infinite exploration.

Umberto F. M. Cefalà

This blog was created in 2012 with the first works and phrases romantic inspired by classical poetry. Later in the 2013 pointed towards a creative line with the testing of the open source project that is of poems by multiple authors. In 2014 he published My metaphors , a study of the figures of speech with new definitions and ad hoc examples. In the same year, to coincide with the Milanese works for the Universal Exhibition of 2015, led EXPO project concerning the representation of the most famous Italian dishes. In 2015 focused attention on those increasingly popular crafts as the grinder or the cobbler. It was also facing classical and contemporary art with the spread of cultural events of all sorts, but always presented in a poetic. In 2016 he held particularly to highlight developments on environmental protection.
