A valley with a small lake, a small natural waterfall—unique in Puglia—and numerous historical sites, from prehistory to the 10th century. A small paradise that many may not know, yet it lies within our territory. We're talking about the Gravina di Riggio, a place of great natural and historical value. A few kilometers from the city, the Gravina di Riggio is a deep valley characterized by a waterfall, a small lake, and a small stream, as well as numerous relics related to the phenomenon of "living in caves." Of particular note is "il Caggione," a circular chasm located near the waterfall. On its sheer walls, a cave village spread across three levels of caves is clearly visible. The remains of a fortification wall, some graffiti, and fragments of pottery date back to the Greek and Roman periods. Finally, the area was heavily inhabited during the Middle Ages, as evidenced by the two frescoed rock churches, the cenobitic hermitage, the pit burials, and a village with communal facilities such as water cisterns and a granary. The Gravina di Riggio rises 4 kilometers from Grottaglie, in the province of Taranto, and is a valley 1,300 meters long and 25 meters deep. In addition to being home to many animal and plant species, it is famous for its caves, some of natural origin, others man-made. The Gravina di Riggio is unique for its waterfall, which after a 15-meter drop feeds a small lake and a stream. The Church-Crypt of the Savior, with frescoes from the 10th and 11th centuries, is also beautiful. A special place not to be missed.

"The Bucito Cave", in Grottaglie I'll make a very brief introduction: generally the manifestations of worship in caves, here, refer to what is the devotion for the Archangel Michael (quis ut Deus). And we owe this to the Lombards who made him their national saint. I would not leave out, however, the Byzantines of Puglia among whom this saint enjoyed enormous popularity. "The Grottaglie area, like other places in the area, has been inhabited by man since the most remote times. In fact, in some districts (Bucito, Coluccio and Lonoce) roughly worked stone tools, splinters and processing residues have been found, belonging to the Paleolithic, that is, to the period of the Ancient Stone. The Buccito Cave (or Coluccio), near Grottaglie, is located at an important road junction, closely connected to the Tratturo Martinese. These are the oldest signs of the presence of man in our territory. In the Neolithic Age (from the mid-5th to the first centuries of the 4th millennium BC) the first agricultural villages began to emerge (Bucito and Caprarica). Caves and natural caverns were then used in all phases of the Bronze and Iron Ages, especially in the villages of Riggio, Lonoce, Fullonese and Pensieri. In the last period of the Bronze Age, the agricultural economy took over from pastoralism, so the ravines were gradually abandoned to form small urban-type settlements. This process was however stifled with the foundation of Taranto by Spartan colonists (towards the end of the 8th century BC)” (From metropolis.it) Why is it called that? The cave takes its name from the Greek term βοῦς, βοός- bus,- or “ox” and οἰκία or “house, shelter, dwelling” and therefore, originally, indicated a place of shelter for these animals. The Greek etymology is evidence of both Magna Graecia, of Byzantine d+-++-homination and of the subsequent presence of the Basilian monks in our territory For some years, in this cave, the mass of December 24th was celebrated. Suggestive! A custom that would be nice to resume, both for our religion and for our traditions.

The Cave is part of the Gravine di Grottaglie and is located in the Terra delle Gravine Regional Park. The Bucito cave (also known as the Coluccio cave) is located in an important road junction, closely connected to the Tratturo Martinese, an ancient primary communication route until the 19th century in Puglia. On a boulder adjacent to the cave there are two statuettes, one of Padre Pio da Pietrelcina and one of Jesus Christ. Until a few years ago, in the Bucito cave, on the night of December 25, the inhabitants of Grottaglie and the surrounding area flocked there for the Christmas vigil and for the celebration of the Midnight Christmas Mass.

Among the ravines of the Ostuni Murge, a few kilometers from the town, along the road known as the Hills, is the ancient rock church of S. Biagio, today in an advanced state of decay, a pilgrimage destination every year for devotees who on February 3, out of devotion, they go to pay homage to the patron saint of the city of Ostuni. The origins of the church, Basilian cenobitic laura, and of the modest adjacent housing complex, seat of the oblate (or guardian), up to the beginning of our century, located in front of the church, date back to the 12th century and various parchments attest to it in irrefutable way. The first to live in the small settlement of S. Biagio in Rialbo in the late Middle Ages were some Basilian oblates who from the bishops of Ostuni obtained the surrounding land, animals and economic support to undertake their activities.

It is located in the Rialbo district, at the end of a long and difficult path between the ravines of the Ostuni Murge. Despite the somewhat impervious path, the sanctuary is still reached on foot by pilgrims on February 3rd to pay homage to the patron saint of the white city. The entire sacred complex is now in an advanced state of decay. It constitutes one of the most interesting and oldest examples of Byzantine influence in Puglia between the 9th and 11th centuries. The sanctuary, in fact, was born in the late Middle Ages as a small settlement of some Basilian oblates who obtained permission from the bishops of Ostuni to occupy that site and obtain financial support to undertake their activities. The hermitage is formed by a modest Romanesque church next to an underground cavity which once featured medieval frescoes. The facade is very simple; there is a mullioned window in the center and a bell gable to one side. Inside there is a stone altar worked in style

The site, protected by a steep rocky wall and perched on a ravine rich in spontaneous and bushy vegetation, was a small hermitage that dates back to the 12th century. As evidenced by ancient parchments, it was inhabited by Eastern Greek monks, perhaps Basilians, who had obtained land and pastures for sustenance from the bishopric of Ostuni. It was probably they who frescoed the rock environment. In addition to two wells dug into the rock to collect rainwater, the site also features a large fovea used for storing food.
