Iammòzzo: Ciascuna delle due ruote di un carretto siciliano è composta da 12 raggi definiti in siciliano iammòzzi (iammi, "gambe") che congiungono il mozzo al cerchione, spesso arricchiti da intagli a fitte sezioni parallele (impòsti) o addirittura soggetti scolpiti quali fiori, aquile, sirene, o teste di paladino.

I really like this shot with the detail, excellently filmed, of the richly decorated wheel. The caption is the right completion of the work that allows, even to the non-siculi, to appreciate more the result
sincere compliments, hello Hello Salvo :-P

Thanks Salvo, I'm really glad of your appreciation to this shot. You are right these carts are true masterpieces, I recently met the grandson of one of the last Catanese craftsmen who built them and told me many fascinating details about this world that has really captured me.
