Warning to Men

There is one antique Sicilian legend which plays the role of a warning to Sicilian men.  This story from the island’s folklore has also created one object which is a traditional and characteristic symbol of the Island. And which is this object? What does the legend narrate?

It takes us back to the period of the Moorish domination on the Island of Sicily, more precisely around 1100. There lived one extremely beautiful Sicilian girl in the district of Kalsa di Palermo. She was an absolute beauty with pink skin compared to the blossom of a peach when flourishing. Her eyes represented and reflected the beautiful Golf of Palermo.
