Naples

By Alessia Bove, Lucy Onorato Cimmino and Martina Rossi

History of Naples

The name Naples derives from the Greek word "Neapolis" that means "new city". The history of Naples extends for about 3 millennia. Over time it expanded and became one of the most populated cities in the world. The most important king was Ferdinand | Bourbon who ascended the throne, at the age of 8, in 1759.

culinary traditions

The first pizza margherita of the story was created in June 1889 by Raffaele Esposito in the Kingdom of Naples in honor of the Italian queen Margherita di Savoia. The first sfogliatella of the story was created by Pasquale Pintauro who worked in a tavern in via Toledo who, after discovering the recipe, transformed into a confectionery.

Language

Diatopic variant of the southern Italian group from the novel languages spoken in Naples and Campania.

Castles

In ancient times Naples was called the "city of seven castles" as the only city in the world to boast seven castles in its perimeter: Castel dell'Ovo, Maschio Angioino, Castel Sant'Elmo, Castel Capuano, Castello del Carmine, Castello di Nisida and the Fort of Vigliena.

Legends

One of the most famous legend is that of the Neapolitan siren.

According to the tradition, the three sisters: Partenope, Ligea and Leucosia, are beaten in song by Orpheus and in desperation they threw themselves into the water. Their bodies were carried by the sea; Ligea ends in Terina, Leucosia in Posidonia and Partenope in the mouth of the Sebeto river.

After a while, all three become rocks and thus the Pardenopean city also called Naples was born.

Traditions

There are many traditions and some are:Pulcinella, Bingo, Tombola, Saint Gennaro and the Neapolitan Grimance.
