PROPERTY DESCRIPTION

Sorrento Property For Sale Villa Property In Sorrento Naples Italy

Initially a Phoenician colony, Sorrento was founded by Liparus, son of Ausonus, who was king of the Ausoni and the son of Ulysses and Circe. The Ausoni tribe was one of the most ancient ethnical groups in the area.
Sorrento became a port frequented by Greeks engaged in commercial activity with Naples and with others southern cities during the Imperial period. It was named "Syrenusion" or "Syreon" by the Greeks, which means Siren's land. According to Greek mythology, sirens lurked in these parts, charming passing sailors to their doom. In fact, Sorrento happened to be the site of the Sirens' temple, the only one in the Greek world.
Sorrento later came under Roman rule. Lured by its beauty, the Romans elected it as the holiday destination of patricians.
After the fall of the Western Roman Empire, Sorrento was ruled by the Ostrogoths and then returned to the Eastern Empire. In the following centuries, the authority of the distant Byzantium Empire faded, Sorrento became an autonomous duchy. In 1133, it was conquered by the Norman Roger II of Hauteville. From this point, Sorrento's history followed that of the newly created Kingdom of Sicily.
In 1861 Sorrento was officially annexed to the new Kingdom of Italy.
