| | Ancient Greek sailors believed that these seven windswept islands were the home of Aeolus, god of the winds. | | | The Aeolian Islands (Isole Eolie o Lipari) have been inhabited for more than 3,000 years, in spite of volcanic activity that even now causes the earth to issue forth sulfuric belches, streams of molten lava, and hissing clouds of steam. | | | Many of its inhabitants long ago emigrated to a better life in the United States or Australia; even today, the islands remain sparsely populated. |

| | Mediterraneo Tour Operator: Aeolian islands |
| | The Aeolian islands, starting in remote times, were colonised by Neolitic peoples interested in exploiting obsidian, an insuperable material for making carving tools. | | | This was due to further eruptions and also to the fact the Second Nicea Council designated them a dwelling of the devil and a place of physical manifestations of this disturbing presence. | | | Later, in the Roman epoch, the archipelago prospered with the sulphur, alum and salt trade, which however gradually declined, until the islands were abandoned. |
