Sicily is the largest of the Italian islands and before becoming part of the Italian Republic was an independet State. Because of this separation from the mainland, Sicily, over the centuries has been host to peoples of many diverse civilizations and traditions, from the Greeks to the Romans, the Byzantines to the Arabs and Normans and the Spanish. All of them have left behind important works of art: the Greek temples of the Valley of Agrigento and Segesta, the Greek theater of Taormina, the Norman and Byzantine Cathedrals of Monreale and Cefalu, the Norman Castle of Palermo and the Baroque Palaces and Churches of Palermo, Noto, Modica, Ragusa and Siracusa, and La Kalsa, the Arab quarter of Palermo. Sicily brings together all of the cultures of the Mediterranean.
