Preface

In my actual study I have been supported by the work of Prof. Salvatore Pirrotti. He, who is an authority in our origins, transmitted me a kind of critical and active knowledge of which I am very grateful to him. The information, in my work, has been taken by his study about "the churches in Mirto"; I have been kindly allowed to publish them.
