othe Etna was formerly considered one of the ancient rooms of the Underworld, direct access to the otherworldly dimension. Its power and the destructive force of its magma, in fact, have caused several legends about the Volcano to develop over the centuries, up to a famous English myth about Queen Elizabeth I. Folklore wants, in fact, that, transported by the devil to be thrown into the crater, a cursed slipper would fall from the lifeless body of the sovereign, which would have brought bad luck to those who came into possession of it.

• Elizabeth I, born on September 7, 1533, was the daughter of Henry VIII and Anne Boleyn,the Tudor family. After the premature death of her mother and a life marked by the political and religious complexity of England, Elizabeth ascended the throne in 1558, becoming the first queen of the country to rule alone. Her kingdom, known as the Elizabethan Age, was distinguished by a cultural renaissance, a flourishing of the arts and the birth of a strong sense of national identity. She faced significant challenges, including religious controversies and external threats, such as the Spanish power, culminating in the defeat of the Invincible Armada in 1588. Elizabeth, known for her political cunning and diplomatic skills, maintained a balance between different religious factions. She died on March 24, 1603, without heirs, marking the end of the Tudor dynasty and the beginning of the Jacobite succession. Her life and reign had a lasting impact on English history.

Mary I of England and Elizabeth I, both daughters of Henry VIII, represent two opposite approaches to power and religion in the 16th century. Mary, known as "Bloody Mary", reigned from 1553 to 1558, trying to restore Catholicism after the years of Protestant Reformation. Her religious policy led to persecution of Protestants, creating a climate of fear and instability. During her reign more than 300 Protestants were burnt at the stake . On the other hand, Elizabeth I, reigned from 1558 to 1603, adopted a more diplomatic and pragmatic position. Known for its ability to maintain national unity, it established an Anglican Church that searched to reconcile the differences between Catholics and Protestants. Although both sovereigns faced significant challenges, Elizabeth managed to establish an era of cultural and political prosperity, while Mary's reign is often remembered for its religious conflicts and tensions.
