Island of Elba: Emotions out of times
The Island of Elba has been the theater of many great historical events: most Mediterranean civilizations have left important traces of their passing. Nature and millenary art and culture are enclosed inside 224 sq kilometers and give to this land a unique atmosphere with extraordinary scenarios: the result of the encounter of so many different peoples.
According to myth it was at Port Argon, today called Capo Bianco, that Jason rested during his adventurous search for the Golden Fleece. While Virgil in his Aeneid reveals that from the same port, 300 Elba inhabitants sailed in to help the "Pious Aeneas" in the hard battle against the Rutuli.
For the Etruscans, the Island of Elba was an inexhaustible source of richness: from the 8th century BC onwards they exploited the mines and exported iron in all the Mediterranean basin, gaining great richness.The furnaces were built and day and night minerals were fused among dazzling flashes. In fact, Aristotle narrates that the Greek sailors named the island Aethalia (spark). On the island there are various necropolises, some remains of fusing ovens and many high villages in unique settings, dating from the Etruscan period.
