Da quando l'uomo ha imparato a dominare l'acqua, la terra, l'aria e il fuoco, in questa cittadina ci sono stati artigiani che hanno saputo creare forme e colori in modo originale. Da quando l'uomo cominciò a vivere non solo di caccia, ma anche di agricoltura, iniziò a forgiare grandi recipienti o piccoli vasi plasmati con un impasto nero-grigiastro con decorazioni geometriche o con figure animali o umane stilizzate. Furono gli arabi, durante la loro dominazione in Sicilia, ad insegnare agli artigiani calatini l'invetriatura della ceramica, e quindi furono loro ad usarla prima che si diffondesse nel resto dell'Italia.

Grazie Donna..mi fa davvero piacere che ti piaccia la mia terra e che tu abbia apprezzato il modo in cui ho cercato con semplicità (e senza pretesa alcuna di realizzare scatti da grande fotografo..) di raccontare alcuni dettagli della provincia Iblea.. :-P

Ciao, Carmelo.

Thanks Donna .. I am really glad you like my land and that you appreciated the way in which I tried with ease (and without any claim to make great shots by photographer ..) to tell some details of the province of Ibla .. :-P
