The Etna Region
Between the Alcantara and Simeto Rivers, rises solitary Etna's giant cone, Europe's greatest active volcano and one of the biggest in the world., it forms the background to practically the whole of the Sicilian landscape, its snow-covered peak can be seen at a distance of more than 250 km 


Very before the arrival of the Greeks, the Sikels already honoured Adranon 'master of the tumultuous bowels of the earth' (whose cult was located mostly in Adrano). According to the Greek mythology, Etna was the abode of the giants Typhoon and Encedade, home of the Cyclopes and the forges of Volcano god. The Etna has erupted more than 130 times (most recently in 2001) the most ancient among the known ones is that of the 475 bC, recorded by Pindar (Pindaro) and by Aeschylus (Eschilo) in his ‘Prometheus Bound’.
Adrano, founded by Dionysius I in 400 b.C. on the banks of the Simeto River near the temple of the god Adranon, lord of Earth and Fire, is probably the oldest inhabited site of the province. Near Adrano, at the ancient Saracens' Bridge, the Simeto River flows through a small gorge in the lava rocks, similar to the more beautiful one formed by the Alcantara River.
