Palermo is the capital of Sicily, which is the largest island in Italy.
At the beginning of Palermo’s history, the first group that ruled Sicily land was represented by Sicani or Sicanian.
In the VII century, Phoenicians arrived in Palermo and called it “Zyz” (which in their language meant flower). At that time Palermo was densely populated thanks also to the fact that people took advantage of the annual mild climates and fertile soil.
Zyz gained importance for its strategic location and became a popular destination for Greeks. They renamed Zyz to Panormos (“all-port”) which refers to the natural harbor that was built by the crossing of the two rivers.
Then the Phoenicians arrived in Palermo and controlled it until the First Punic War happened (264 and 241 B.C.). Palermo was at the center of the dispute between the Romans and the Phoenicians from Carthage.
Palermo was then invaded by Romans, who ruled Sicily from 258 B.C., when Palermo was conquered, until 491 A.D. During this period of barbarians, Ostrogoths arrived in the city and conquered it.
The city of Palermo, under Roman control, did not undergo many changes in the appearance or autonomy of Palermo.
Then, in 535 A.D. Palermo was freed by the Byzantines. They brought a period of peace to the city that lasted until 831. At that time, indeed, Arabs took over and made Palermo the capital of their Sicilian emirate.
At this point in its history, Palermo was called Balarm and this was a prosperous period for the city in terms of trade.
From 827 to 1061, Arabs brought important social, economic, and cultural advancements that are still reflected in traditional Sicilian practices and habits.
The Arab domination was one of the most important and longest eras in Sicily and it had a crucial impact on Sicily. Arabs built buildings, mosques, churches, gardens, and so on. Moreover, they played an important role in Sicily’s cuisine.
In 1702, Arabs lost control of Palermo to the Normans and “The Expedition of the Thousand”. Thanks to them, an official kingdom was created, and Palermo was named the Capital of Sicily. During this period, a great number of churches and other buildings were built, such as the Cappella Palatina.
At the beginning of the XX century, Palermo flourished thanks to important economic and cultural growth. When the Great War began, Fascism soon arrived in Sicily and in 1946 the city was officially named the Capital of the Island.
Today, Palermo is experiencing another prosperous time thanks to its year-round mild climate, deep history, artistic heritage, and so on. Tourist tours are the best way to get to know Palermo and the life and customs of its inhabitants.
