Sorrento - Positano - Amalfi

Sorrento - Positano - Amalfi

Sorrento: The foundation is traditionally and legendarily attributed to the Greeks, but Sorrento had as its first settled inhabitants the Italic peoples, starting from the Etruscans and then, from 420 a.C., the influence of the Osci was important. In Roman times, Sorrento is remembered for having participated in the Italic insurrection (90 BC); a colony was then deduced from Silla, which was later followed by a settlement of Octavian veterans. It was then the town hall of the Menenia tribe. Amalfi: Its foundation is traced back to the Romans (its emblem bears the inscription Descendit ex patribus romanorum). Starting from the ninth century, first (in chronological order) among the maritime republics, rivaled with Pisa, Venice and Genoa for the control of the Mediterranean Sea. The Maritime Code of Amalfi, better known as the Tavole amalfitane, had a great influence until the seventeenth century.
