Ciociaria
Ciociaria () is the name by which, starting from the modern era, some impoverished territories southeast of Rome were called at a popular level, without defined geographical limits. Starting from the Fascist period and the creation of the province of Frosinone, the same name was arbitrarily imposed by the local fascist organizations and then misused by the local press, by promotional associations and folkloristic events as a synonym for Frosinone and all the popular traditions of its territory. The local dialect, in old literature referred to as ''campanino'', although they are mere local variants of Central-Italian Latian is therefore improperly indicated as " ciociaro dialect", although the linguistic and scientific definition is Central-Northern Latian. In more recent times, the term ''Campagna Romana'', or Roman Campagna, a favorite subject of countless painters from all over Europe, has referred to the adjoining region to the north of ''Ciociaria'', but part of the Province ...

Ciocia
Ciocia ( in Rome and Northern Lazio; plural ''ciocie'') is a modern Roman dialect's term to indicate a footwear of some mountainous areas of Southern and South-Eastern Europe, in particular Central and Southern Italy as well as the Balkans ('' opanci''). Origins and history The name probably comes from late Latin ''soccus'', meaning slipper. It has many other forms in some Italian dialects like ''chioca'', ''chiochiera'', ''ciòcero'' or ''sciòscio'' in Neapolitan language. The term ''ciociari'', a pejorative modern Roman term used to indicate poor mountain shepherds, have a lexical similarity to the noun ''ciocia'', so many historians thought they have their root word in local footwear's name, so ''ciociari'' would mean 'people who wear ''ciocie'''. Dubarry A., ''Le brigandage en Italie depuis les temps les plus reculés jusqu'à nos jours'', Plon & Cie, Paris 1875, pp. 269-286. Central and Southern Italian poor peasants and shepherds used to wear ''ciocie'' and they were represe ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Copper
Copper is a chemical element with the symbol Cu (from la, cuprum) and atomic number 29. It is a soft, malleable, and ductile metal with very high thermal and electrical conductivity. A freshly exposed surface of pure copper has a pinkish-orange color. Copper is used as a conductor of heat and electricity, as a building material, and as a constituent of various metal alloys, such as sterling silver used in jewelry, cupronickel used to make marine hardware and coins, and constantan used in strain gauges and thermocouples for temperature measurement. Copper is one of the few metals that can occur in nature in a directly usable metallic form ( native metals). This led to very early human use in several regions, from circa 8000 BC. Thousands of years later, it was the first metal to be smelted from sulfide ores, circa 5000 BC; the first metal to be cast into a shape in a mold, c. 4000 BC; and the first metal to be purposely alloyed with another metal, tin, to create ...
