Is located in a house of the XIV century, in front of the Prehistoric Section, extended in the XVII century with the addition of another building.
Dedicated to Alfred Ritmann, it aims to introduce the visitor to the geomorphological knowlege of the Aeolian Archipelago, whose islands are of a volcanic formation. That is, to the understanding of most aspects of the human settlements that succeded each other across the centuries, their formation, and the economy and the material culture.
It spans three levels, respectively dedicated: to Industrial Archaeology, the ground floor; to General Vulcanology, the middle floor; to the Vulcanology of Stromboli (Fig.1), Vulcano (Fig.2), Panarea (Fig.3), Lipari (Fig.4), Salina (Fig.5), Filicudi (Fig.6) and Alicudi (Fig.7), the Top Floor.
The exhibition consists mainly of vucanological samples, equipped from a precise visual teaching tool; plastic models relating to every single island; a documentary video library and an interactive computer product. |
