Though there have always been human settlements here since Neolithic times, its origins are historically uncertain; under the Lombards in the Duchy of Benevento, it reached a certain importance. Later it lived through troubled times, when it was first devastated by the Franks, then (876) by Emperor Ludovic II and finally by the Saracens. In the 11th century, Matera was conquered by the Normans and from then, on it shared the vicissitudes of the Kingdom of Sicily (then of Naples and of the Two Sicily's), though on several occasions becoming the fief of powerful overlords. In 1860 it was annexed to Italy.
Matera's major attraction is certainly I Sassi (Sasso Barisano to the north, Sasso Caveoso to the south), an agglomeration of alm ... Read More...
