COMPLETED - Italy - Molise Region
« on: Saturday 09 June 12 01:21 BST (UK) »
I am looking to find out where Pesco Antilia is. It is around Pesco della Messa, Frosolone, Macchiagodena area.

Failing that, could anyone tell me, would Pesco Antilia more likely be a name of a mountain/hill or of a family farm/small holding please?

Thanks very much.

Thank you replying and for the links carinthiangirl :) Have you ever heard of another mountain or location called Pesco Antilia?

Thanks baggygenes, that's a bit far to be the right place I'm afraid. Thanks very much for looking.

itīs far away south of Pesco della Messa in Campagna-area and province Salerno. i thought it should be close to Pesco della Messa - there is no connection to it.

to the theme stated in another forum about "a name of a farmhouse". this is usual in the area of the Alps like Austria, Germany, Switzerland.......in Italy like northern Province Trentino-Alto Adige, which was once austrian. not usual in Italy directly and specially not in the areas south of this northern part of Italy.

That's great - so at least I know that I am looking for a mountain/peak in the Frosolone area which helps a lot.
