Sicily and the Aeolian Archipelago

Sicily is the largest of the Mediterranean islands and itmis quite mountainous. On the map you can see Mt Etna in the northeast of Sicily. North from there, just off the northeast coast in the Tyrrhenian Sea, are the Aeolian Islands - born of the earth but named for Aeolus, the god of the winds.
