History
     
 
   
  Posillipo Coast. The bay called "dei due frati".
Means two brothers. This history belong to a legend, one of the legend of Naples, ancient as the city, that everyone knows but none can say where came from.
Ghosts.
Luigi and Carmine, lived on that bay in an uncertain time (but many and many century ago).
One day their parents found a beautiful girl that survived to a maritime disaster of the precedent night, when a battled sank......
That girl went to live at their home and become a sister for Carmine and Luigi.
But not at all.
Luigi was falling in love with Concetta and Carmine was becoming gelous.
Concetta loved Carmine and one day they decided to fled away to get married longer from Luigi.
They planned to return back when married and to continue staying with their family that they loved. With Luigi that was loved too.
They choose the Carnival night, when in Naples was a great masked fest.
They masked and sent Luigi at the fest saying that they will came in few minutes.
Than they take a little boat and started to run away.

"Run Run , Some is ravishing your Concetta!!!".
There was a child of his nearby that advised Luigi.
Luigi, runned and runned and at the end arrived on the coast, looked the little boat, and take another to reach the two fugitives.
He reached the couple.
This happened near a rock no longer from the coast.

As soon as he reached the two, they started to fight. Carmine had no recognized his brother because he was masked and Luigi too.
For Luigi the masked man was a foreign that was ravish Concetta, and for Carmine the black dressed man was someone that wanted to stop their running.
At the end Luigi killed that masked man.
But as soon as he kept out the mask from his face

Orrible.

That killed man was his brother.
He didn't tolerate this.
So, at the end, killed themselves. In that same time

A terrible thunder was heard in all the city.
People that narrate this story says: "That was a wonderful night of Febraury, without clouds".

All the people in Naples heard that thunder. The fest stop suddenly, and all the citizen went to see what happened.
The sky become black, full of dark clouds. And in the sea, upon the bay of Posillipo.......
the rocks became two.
Two rocks, two brothers.

People, once that history became famous, called that bay: LA BAIA DEI DUE FRATI.

That legend belong to a period of thousand years ago.

Today, in the moonless night, Neapolitans living there say and swear that
The two rocks changed places each other. Lovers went in the dark night in that place.
It' s said one of the most romantic of this
city. Funny and gloomy at one time.
