  • Mount Alveria is located in the Province of Siracusa, south-eastern Sicily. This mountainside has been inhabited since prehistoric times. The Elymians lived there before the 10th century B.C. They were followed by the Sicani and then the Siculians. Many Bronze age artefacts have been found in this locality. One of the oldest archeological sites in the area is the Necropolis of Castelluccio though to date from the 17th-15th centuries BC. The Roman Villa of Tellaro has also been excavated on Mount Alveria. Mount Alveria was the original site of the city of Noto. Noto was relocated to a more level site 10 kilometres away after the earthquake of 1693. The ruins of the old city of Noto, known today as Noto Antica, still remain on a ridge on the mountain side.
  • Le mont Alveria est une petite montagne de la région de Syracuse, au sud-est de la Sicile. D'une altitude maximale de 122 mètres, les flancs du mont Alveria ont été habités depuis les temps préhistoriques. De nombreux outils datant de l'âge du bronze ont été retrouvés à cet endroit. Il s'agit également de l'emplacement du site archéologique le plus ancien des environs, la nécropole de Castelluccio, qui remonte au XVII ou au XV siècle av. J. -C. Le mont Alveria est par ailleurs le site original de la ville de Noto. Cette dernière fut déplacée vers un endroit plus plat, à dix kilomètres de là, suite au tremblement de terre de 1693. Les ruines de l'ancienne cité de Noto, aujourd'hui appelée Noto Antica, sont toujours visibles sur la montagne.
