Mist\u00e8ri\u00a0<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Sicilian Pece stone, unique of its kind, was extracted from the depths of the earth, until the recent past, to obtain a precious sap: bitumen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Stone and bodies capable of changing, giving up part of their lives; fluids and sweat, in the hard practice of every day: work, craft, 'u mist\u00e8ri, in the Sicilian dialect. \u2018u \u2018misteri<\/em>, nell\u2019idioma siciliano.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Like sacred relics of ancient passions, fragments of quarried stone and black shrouds remain as witnesses and memories of vanished mist\u00e8ri, of human toil and the greatness of nature. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
