S.MARIA DELLA STELLA
THE CHURCH OF S. MARIA DELLA STELLA WAS RISING IN THE PEZZA’S VALLEY ACCROSS THE SPANISH ROAD NEAR TO THE PANTANO’S AREA.
IT WAS ONE OF THE ANCIENT CHURCHS LIKE S.SALVATORE OR S. SILVESTRO THAT RANS ALONG THIS IMPORTANT ROAD APPROACH TO THE SEA. IT HAVE RESTORED THANKS TO A LEGACY OF THE COUNT GIACOMO OF CECCANO IN THE 1363. IN TIME, SLOWLY DISAPPEARED, REMAINS ONLY THE NAME FOR THE CLOSE AREA. THE PEOPLE OF VILLA S.STEFANO TO CALL TO MIND THE LOST CHURCH, ERECTED A SMALL EDICOLA CONSACRATED TO THE MADONNA IN THE PRESUMED PLACE OF THE ANCIENT TEMPLE. THE COMMON NOUN OF S. MARIA DELLA STELLA ( STAR) IS DERIVED FROM A WONDER DEEP BLUE MANTLE EMBELLISHED OF STARS OF AN ANCIENT LIGNEOUS STATUE USUALLY CALLED MADONNA DELL’ACQUA ( WATER ) PROBABLY BECAUSE TO THE PRIMITIVE LOCATION CLOSE AT THE PANTANO.
