    This is the most outstanding, intact example of a troglodyte

    settlement in the Mediterranean region, perfectly adapted to its

    terrain and ecosystem. The first inhabited zone dates from the

    Palaeolithic, while later settlements illustrate a number of

    significant stages in human history. Matera is in the southern region

    of Basilicata.

    The building is on the site of the so-called "Rocks of the Siren" and,

    indeed, was originally called "La Villa Sirena". It changed hands a

    number of times and finally was inherited in 1630 by the woman whose

    name it now bears, Anna Stigilano, who then married the Spanish

    viceroy of Naples. She had the building redone by the great architect,

    Cosimo Fanzago, in the 1640s and, since that time, the building has

    been called Villa Donn'Anna. Thanks for viewing.
