Biodiversity here is unique species of rare flora and fauna elsewhere.
In fact, it is possible here to see some of the walls of the nails where the man dug ancient rupee villages and churches still exist.
Of particular value are in fact the rupee settlements, especially the Savior's cellar with 11th-century frescoes.
Rocky settlements are a collection of complex social, cultural, civil and religious realities, associated with the experience of living in a cave, which affected the whole of southern Italy from the sixth to thirteenth centuries.
