Excavations resume at the archaeological site of Carminiello ai Mannesi in the heart of Forcella. Borrelli and Eduardo Di Napoli: "Our city is overflowing with history that must be protected and enhanced."
Archaeological excavations have resumed in Naples at the site of Carminiello ai Mannesi, in the Forcella district. The archaeological site was discovered by chance during the Second World War when the area was bombed in 1943. The removal of the rubble led to the discovery of a thermal building, dating back to the XNUMXst century AD, which was hidden under the church of Santa Maria del Carmine ai Mannesi.
The young entrepreneur Eduardo Di Napoli, whose bar was set on fire by a clan after he refused to give in to racketeering demands, reported the resumption of work on the archaeological site: "This site had been closed for 50 years, now they have reopened it and are starting to dig again. Here in Naples, in the historic center, we are invaded by history."
"Naples is a city that overflows with history and culture but too often our sites are not protected, enhanced or respected. We will closely follow the story of the Carminiello ai Mannesi area to understand more." - declared the Regional Councilor of Europa Verde Francesco Emilio Borrelli who was informed of the excavations by Eduardo Di Napoli.
