Corna Trentapassi

Corna Trentapassi is a mountain of the Brescia Pre-Alps in Italy. It is 1248m high, located on the eastern shore of Lake Iseo. It marks the beginning of Val Camonica. It is made up of limestone rocks which give it a harsh and steep aspect. Vegetation cover is scarce, especially on the barren southern slope.
Due to its position, isolated from the surrounding pre-alpine mountains and jutting out into the lake, the summit of the mountain is considered an excellent vantage point, despite its low altitude.
The Brescian name for Trentapassi is "Trè Tapàs" which means "three spikes", a term that describes the appearance of the mountain.
Climbing.
There are several routes to climb to the summit: most of them are within the reach of hikers, as only the one facing the mountain from the north side presents technical difficulties. The possible presence of snow in the winter months makes these itineraries recommended from April to November.
The most difficult path (difficulty EEA) starts in Toline (188m), a hamlet southwest of Pisogne, following the trail marker CAI n. 212. Steep, it becomes a via ferrata (for which adequate equipment is required) in the final stretch, preceded and followed by some delicate passages on rocks. Suitable for trained and equipped hikers, it exceeds 1060m in height and it takes about 3 hours as a whole.
Two paths (CAI trail no. 263 and no. 265) run along the southern side of the mountain. The first (difficulty EE) has some delicate passages and takes 2 hours and 30 minutes, while the second is easier but longer (3 hours, difficulty E). Since 2011, these paths have been the scene of a spectacular foot race called the Trentapassi Skyrace.
In the hamlet of Cusato (689m), the shortest, and in many ways less demanding, route begins. Marked as CAI trail no. 229, it is initially a cobbled mule track at the bottom that climbs to the Coloreto hut (895m) and on to the saddle (942m) where it crosses other signposted paths and continues to the panoramic summit. Technically easy (difficulty E), it takes 1 hour and 30 minutes.

The Inachus rises, according to Pausanias (ii 25.3, 8.6.6), in Mt. Artemisium, on the borders of Arcadia, or, according to Strabo ("viii. p.370"), in Mt. Lyrceium, a northern offshoot of Artemisium. Near its sources it receives a tributary called the Cephissus, which rises in Mt. Lyrceium ("Strab. ix. p.424"; Aelian, Ael. VH 2.33.) It flows in a south-easterly direction, E. of the city of Argos, into the Argolic gulf. This river is often dry in the summer. Between it and the city of Argos is the mountain-torrent named Charadrus, which also rises in Mt. Artemisium, and which, from its proximity to Argos, has been frequently mistaken for the Inachus by modern travellers. It flows over a wide gravelly bed, which is generally dry in the summer, whence its modern name of Xerias, or the Dry River. It flows into the Inachus a little below Argos. It was on the banks of the Charadrus that the armies of Argos, on their return from military expeditions, were obliged to undergo a court of inquiry before they were permitted to enter the city. (Thuc. 5.60; comp. Paus. 2.25.2; Leake, Morea, vol. ii. p. 364, Peloponnesiaca, p. 267; Mure, vol. ii. p. 161.)

Argamasilla de Alba

Argamasilla de Alba is a municipality in the Province of Ciudad Real, Castile-La Mancha, Spain. It has a population of 6,791.
According to local legend, "Don Quixote" author Miguel de Cervantes was held prisoner here, and refers to the municipality in the prologue of "Don Quixote" Part I, making a joke about imprisonment"engendered in a jail"because the word "argamasilla" is Spanish for "mortar". The text talks about it as the place where Don Quixote is buried, and that the "Academicians of Argamasilla" meet at the gravesite.
Contrary to the foundation of the joke, Argamasilla de Alba has never had a group of academicians working there, and modern Cervantes scholars believe this is a reference to his well-documented imprisonment in the Cárcel Real of Seville. José María Casasayas, founder of the Asociación de Cervantes, delivered a paper in 1999 in which he proposed that the town in Part I of the novel was Argamasilla de Alba, but in Part II, internal evidence suggests it was Argamasilla de Calatrava, a confusion deliberately created by Cervantes.
The town's tourist and cultural office is located in a rebuilt house, the "Casa de Medrano", which contains beneath the "Cave of Medrano", in which Cervantes' imprisonment allegedly took place. In the nineteenth century, Juan Eugenio Hartzenbusch had a printing press set up in the cave and printed there an edition of "Don Quixote". In keeping with the action of the novel's "Academicians of Argamasilla", the Asociación de Cervantistas held its annual meeting in Argamasilla de Alba in 1995, and returned for a meeting in 2005.
