INDUSTRIAL ARCHEOLOGY

The workforce of Sicily yesterday

Wandering around Sicily, industrial archeology, like the underwater one, was a beautiful discovery who taught me many things. From a simple building, usually an abandoned cottage and rundown, you can imagine incredible stories of life lived in full swing. The building that apparently seems bare and lifeless, suddenly it becomes a place where it is possible imagine how you once worked in the same place at a frenetic, sometimes exhausting pace with the machinery in constant motion, and how hard the work of those every day had to be he worked grueling shifts for families, wives, and carusi who were forced to work from an early age. There I find enormous wealth just as it is now, because it tells of my land, and of the people who lived it, and of the great people who are my Sicily.
