Il mercato delle Gaite a Bevagna è una rievocazione della vita medioevale
Bevagna (Latin Mevania) is a town and comune in the central part of the Italian province of Perugia, (Umbria), in the flood plain of the Topino river (anc. Tinia).
Bevagna is 25 km (15 mi) SE of Perugia, 8 km west of Foligno, 7 km north-north-west of Montefalco, 16 km south of Assisi and 15 km (9 mi) north-west of Trevi.
It has a population of c. 5,000, with the town of Bevagna proper accounting for about half of that.
The city was originally an Etruscan-Oscan settlement. Around 80-90 BC it became a Roman municipium, called Mevania In the 3rd-4th centuries AD it was probably an episcopal see and, after the Lombard conquest, the seat of gastald in the Duchy of Spoleto.
After the year 1000 it was a free commune. In 1152 Frederick Barbarossa set it on fire. In 1249 it was again destroyed by the Count of Aquino. In 1371-1439 it was ruled by the Trinci family. Later it was part of the Papal States until the unification of Italy.



Bevagna è un comune di 4.794 abitanti della provincia di Perugia, un tempo nota per le tele pregiate che vi si producevano, tanto da essere chiamate "bevagne".
Municipio romano (Mevania), conobbe una certa prosperità durante l'epoca imperiale. Sembra sia stata anche sede, attorno al III-IV secolo, sede vescovile. Più volte andò soggetta a saccheggi e distruzioni: nel 1152 Federico Barbarossa la espugnò e incendiò, nel 1249 fu distrutta dal Conte d'Aquino e nel 1375 da Corrado Trinci.

Ciao Silvio :o)
Douce atmosphère :o) J'adore le mélange du beige/ écru et du bleu ciel, il donne une tendresse à cette photo. Belles expressions .... fatigue ou chaleur écrasante ? ;o) Bravo Silvio !

Thanks for the time-travel. Your medieval girls are nice, but verticals in this image a bit slanted.
