archaicwonder:Taormina Theater….and an erupting volcano (OMG) by Luigi Strano FDV on Flickr.The ancient Sicilian theater of Taormina being upstaged by Mt Etna exploding in the background.In Greek Mythology, the deadly monster Typhon was trapped under Mt Etna by Zeus and the forges of Hephaestus were said to also be located underneath it.The name Etna is said to have originated from a Phoenician word attuna meaning “furnace”. -- source link
