The town of Amelia lays on the top of a rocky hill on whose land, olive and ilex threes grow all around, only interrupted by the river Tevere.
Alviano is a middle age village sourrounded by green hills and dipped in a surrealistic but rocky atmosphere at the same time. Its history starts with feudalism. Alviano was named Feud in 933 under the latin name of Albianum, by the count Offredo, belonging to the family of emperor Ottone III.
Attigliano is located close to the river Tevere. Its history is old and rich. Its name comes from the latin word Ad Tilium, meaning throughout countries with plenty of limes.
Avigliano Umbro is just few km away from Amelia. The income to the town is through Porta Vecchia, one of the most remakable artistic examples of the town, still with the symbol of the big eagle holding two smaller eagles, image of Todi commun, whichh for a long time had control over the town.
The map of the village of Giove is not due to a presumed temple or cult of the God Giove (no temple has been found even if the cult of the divinity was very spread in all the Lazio region) but to the Latin word "jugum", "vetta" between two valleys, that perfectly fits the geographic location of the village.
The hystory of Guardea, having originally the name of Guardege, is similar to the other larger villages of the region, like Alviano and Lugnano in Teverina.
Laying along the Amerina way, Lugnano in Teverina was created in 600 a.C. by the people of the neighboiring villages in order to protect themseves from the attacks of barbarians before, and Saracenics after.
Montecastrilli origin has to be found during the Annibal life, which passed by here and camped on the "Castrillorum", which in latin means "camping".
The Penna in Teverina village of the umbrian country has many similarities with the closest villages of the amerino region.
