Walk through Compitese villages

On the way to the Compitese villages, the white areas in the mountains were pointed out to us - that was marble.  Not sure how well it comes out in pics.

On the walk.
A fontana (fountain) of fresh spring water.

Cyclamens in the wild!!!
A watch-tower - no bells here.
This is a close-up of the box is where the head of an executed prisoner was displayed as a deterrent.  None there today, and it seems a bird has moved in.  We speculated as to who got the job of climbing up to put the head in!
 And olive trees everywhere.  Here are a couple of close-ups.  Tried one but it was bitter.
