Where the Aquilone wind blows<br />
Montaquila is made up of Montaquila centre,<br />
Masserie La Corte and Roccaravindola. Accor<strong>di</strong>ng<br />
to some stu<strong>di</strong>ouses, it was the ancient Aquilonia of<br />
Samnites. Probabily, in this village, Samnites lost<br />
their in<strong>di</strong>pendence due to Roman people. Belonged<br />
to the Roman age is also an ancient “Taverna”<br />
along the old Roman road. To the V century dates<br />
S. Maria dell’Assunta Church, while in the VIII<br />
century Montaquila belonged to the S. <strong>Vincenzo</strong> al<br />
Volturno Abbey. Montaquila inhabitants, about the<br />
X century, settled on the hill where it lies today.<br />
Especially along S.S. 158 you can see many<br />
commercial activities.<br />
The silent fortress<br />
In Roccaravindola Alta there are ruins of a Dark<br />
Middle Age fortress; in Roccaravindola Bassa there<br />
is a me<strong>di</strong>oeval little Church devoted to S. Michele<br />
Arcangelo, where there is a Roman bas-relief. Local<br />
“Rinascita Ravindolese Association” organizes here<br />
the suggestive N’coppa alla Rocca manifestation.
