The problems with sleeping typically start out gradually and worsen over time.

It results in death within a few months to a few years and has no known cure.

House Of Gravina
The House of Gravina, then Gravina Cruyllas, was a noble family of Norman origins, with roots stretching back to Rollo, the first ruler of Normandy. History The house was founded by Silvano, owner of the land of Gravina in modern-day Apulia, from which he and his descendants took the name. King Martin I of Sicily, on 20 November 1405, formally recognised the family's noble Norman origins by issuing a diploma (a form of charter) upon Giacomo of Gravina. Following the charter, Giacomo chose to relocate the family to Sicily, where the King allowed him and his descendants to be buried in the Royal Chapel of Catania, now known as Basilica della Collegiata. The family acquired the surname Cruyllas, and kept it for three centuries, when Girolamo Gravina, 4th baron of Palagonia, in 1531 married Contessina Moncada Cruyllas, the last heir of a family of Spanish origin, who brought him a very rich dowry including the fief of Calatabiano and that of Francofonte. The family divided int ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
