This book traces the early history of San Teodoro, its territory and its sea, from prehistory to the Middle Ages. An important part is dedicated to the catalogue of the exhibits in the Museo delle Civiltà del Mare coming mainly from deposits and shipwrecks in the waters of the coast between Loiri Porto San Paolo, San Teodoro and Budoni. The pages of this book reveal a past rich with events and relationships, especially with people from overseas.
