Ancient Walks and Historical Itineraries of Sicily
curated by Ignazio Caloggero
The 'Ancient Paths and Historical Itineraries of Sicily' project is a non-profit cultural and scientific initiative, open to the community. The project has two main objectives:
- 1: Identify and catalog the ancient paths and historical itineraries of Sicily so that they can be of support for anyone who wishes to identify hiking, experiential and eco-museum itineraries and routes that reflect faithfulness to the ancient paths as much as possible.
- 2: Creation of the “Charter of the Paths of Sicily” on the basis of the existing paths created in the territory by the various promoting entities.
To achieve the objectives, a series of tools have been foreseen:
- Analysis of bibliographic and cartographic sources
- Repertoire of Ancient Cartography of Sicily
- Multimedia Archaeological Map of Sicily (CAMS)
- Map of the Paths and Royal Trazzere of Sicily (CSRT)
- Map of the Sicilian, Greek and Roman Roads and Crossroads
- Map of the Paths of Sicily (CSS)
- Comparative Map of Sicilian Paths and Historical Roads
