There are two archaeological sites in Sicily , into opposite directions, among my favourite ones. up above the fortress of Eurialo's Castle  one of the jewels of the ancient Greek Syracuse and down below  some pictures taken around  the North gate of the ancient Selinunte  and  in its defence system They are indirectly correlated each other  for being one of the outmost examples  of an active defense system
