Note
"Gela (Italian pronunciation: [ˈdʒɛːla]; Ancient Greek: Γέλα), is a city and comune in the Autonomous Region of Sicily, the largest for area and population on Sicily´s southern coast. It is part of the Caltanissetta province, being the only comune in Italy with a population and area that exceeds those of the province´s capital. Founded by Greek colonists from Rhodes and Crete in 689 BC, Gela was an influential polis in Sicily between the 7th and 6th centuries and the place where Aeschylus lived and died in 456 BC. In 1943 Gela was the first Italian beach reached by allies during the Invasion of Sicily from the allies." - (en.wikipedia.org 22.09.2020)
