Artist's Description
Numerous ethnic groups have influenced the history of Sicily. Sicily at times has been controlled by the Romans, Vandal and Ostrogoth, Byzantine and Islamic powers, but also experiencing important periods of independence, as under the Siceliotes of Greek origin and later as the autonomous Emirate then Kingdom of Sicily. Roger II, belonging to the Siculo-Norman family of Hauteville, founded the Kingdom in 1130.
Gangi's origins have been connected to the ancient Greek city of Engyon, or Herbita, but this theory remains unconfirmed. As the theory goes, Engyon was founded by Byzantines (Greeks 460-700AD) who came to Sicily. They were eventually stranded when their ships were burned during conflicts with the current occupants of Sicily. Never to return home they founded Engyon at the site where Gangi is now located. Although this theory remains unconfirmed, archaeological excavations under the Abbey of Gangivecchio in old Gangi confirm traces of a former Roman presence.
About Richard Gehlbach
Two of my passions are traveling and photography. I caught the traveling bug when I was in the military. The love for photography actually developed when I was trying to capture memories of my children as they were growing older. What better way to spend my retirement than to travel and try to improve my photographic skills. I hope you enjoy these photographs. Photographs can enhance the beauty of your home or office. They can bring light into a room or happiness into your heart. If any of these photographs or those of other artists are of interest to you, simply click on the photograph to review purchasing options. Thanks for visiting.
