ill., br. Le tracce più antiche di insediamenti sull'isola di Procida, riferibili all'età del Bronzo, sono state rinvenute a Vivara. Le ricerche archeologiche hanno dimostrato che l'isola di Vivara era abitata fin dal XVII secolo a.C. e che rappresentava un crocevia strategico nei traffici marittimi che collegavano la Grecia dell'età micenea con l'Occidente. A seguito dei navigli provenienti dall'Egeo giungevano fino all'originario porto-approdo vivarese, oggi sommerso a una profondità di circa 14 metri sotto il livello del mare, grandi vasi da trasporto, raffinate coppe, tazzette dipinte e piccoli vasi contenenti oli profumati o altri tipi di unguenti. Questi ritrovamenti attestano l'esistenza di scambi commerciali tra gli abitanti del comprensorio di Procida-Vivara e le più antiche marinerie mediterranee fra la metà del XVII e il XV secolo a.C. L'autrice ci guida in un'affascinante visita di Vivara, attraverso un sapiente excursus sulla storia dell'isola e sul progetto di studio a essa dedicato, che mette in evidenza l'identità del luogo e condensa in un'unica mappa le eccezionali testimonianze del passato e gli aspetti più suggestivi della natura.
