On the third and fourth days of the virtual mobility, we led the Partners to the beautiful towns of Tropea and Pizzo, which are very famous summer resorts. We went on taking them to the archaeological museums of Vibo Valentia and Reggio Calabria. In the museum of Reggio Calabria we showed the famous bronzes, two full-sized Greek bronzes of naked bearded warriors cast about 460-450 BC, originally found in the sea in 1972 near Riace, in the province of Reggio Calabria. Famous all over the world, they are now considered one of the symbols of Calabria. All the Partners from Greece, Portugal, Spain and Italy enjoyed the virtual tour during which the students also had the opportunity to realize how similar the Greek and Italian cultures are, and that our roots are deeply connected since the Greeks colonised Southern Italy, as a video created by the Greek students showed.
