Tips

Roberto Nuzzo

October 3, 2021

When the sea decides to take what it wants, it is to preserve its true beauty ... What remains of this tower are the signs of time and the landscape that surrounds it, not far from the caves of Poetry. At its foot it is difficult not to notice various buildings (or rather remains of buildings) designed to defend against attacks by sea. Its importance in the archaeological field is linked to the discovery of Messapian (but also Latin and Greek) inscriptions on its walls, from which it was possible to establish that the cave was once a place of worship of the god Taotor.
