HISTORY ABOUT
AMALFI
The origin of the
town is not a certain one. The name comes from
Latina (from Melfi, a Lucan sea village abandoned
by Roman people in IV century a.C. or maybe from
Roman gens Amarfia, that lived in I century a.C.).
A legend tells that the name comes from Amalfi,
a nymph loved by Hercules. She was buried there
as a desire of the gods. Amalfi was surely inhabited
by Romans, escaped on Lattari mounts to hide from
Germanic and Longobard invasions. It was a castrum
in defence of Byzantine ducat of Naples. The town
had a privileged relation to Byzantium thanks to
its ability in the commerce. Amalfi people invented
the compass and spread its use in the Mediterranean
sea in the first half of XIII century.The famous “mythic” inventor Flavio Gioia
never existed even if a monument in the main square
of Amalfi was dedicated to him by an artist from
Cava de’ Tirreni, Alfonso Balzico. An ancient
Amalfi tradition tells that a man, Giovanni Gioia,
was the person who invented the compass. Sailors
from Amalfi were able to manage commercial relations
to all the towns of Mediterranean Sea, also to Saracens. Read
