Thus, the Moor, unable to leave anymore, would always remain with her. Meanwhile, the basil grew luxuriantly and aroused the envy of all the inhabitants of the neighborhood.  Not to be outdone, they had terracotta Vases built in the shape of Moor's head . Caltagirone: city of ceramics The name Caltagirone derives from the Arabic term Qalat al Ghiran, which means "Rock of Vases ". The manufacturing of ceramics in the Caltagirone area dates back to the Neolithic.  The imprint of the various peoples who have colonized Sicily over the centuries is also perceived in the processing of ceramics, despite this, the potters in their art have always brought out the Sicilian spirit. The art of working with Sicilian ceramics has been handed down from generation to generation.
