    Carnian carrier who fell and was fatally shot by a sniper during the First World War while she was supplying the front line departments.

      Maria Plozner Mentil (Timau, Paluzza 1884 - 1916) was a Carnic bearer during the Great War. Left alone with her four children (her husband was sent to fight in the Karst), she found herself living among soldiers as the mountains surrounding her village, Timau, were transformed into battlefields. Despite a difficult situation, like many other local women, she responded to the army's call for volunteers to transport supplies from the rear to the front line. The Carnic porters were born who with their heavy panniers (filled with provisions, weapons and ammunition) climbed the slopes of Pal Piccolo, Pal Grande, Freikofel, Cima Avostanis and Passo Pramosio every day on foot.
