===========================================================
Important notice.
===========================================================

Although in principle it could be possible for participants to be
based in Palermo city centre while attending the conference in
Terrasini, in practice, unless you have a private car, this is not
advisable at all. Indeed, there are not many Palermo-Terrasini
connections during the day, even fewer at night.
If you wish to find accommodation in Terrasini, please do not wait too
long. There are several B&B's in town, however in September it is
tourist season in Sicily, and you might find the best or more
affordable accommodations already booked.

===========================================================
Info on the location.
===========================================================

The conference will take place in the historical site of Palazzo
d'Aumale, facing the sea front, in the centre of Terrasini. The
building was built in the XIX century under Don Vincenzo Grifeo,
Prince of Partanna and Duke of Floridia. Then it was acquired by the
Duke of Aumale (hence the name), the fifth son of King Louis-Philippe
I of the French, to be used as a wine warehouse. Since 2001, Palazzo
d'Aumale houses some collections of archaeological and
ethno-anthropological interest.

Terrasini is a small pretty village close to the beach, five minutes
away from Palermo airport. Please consider that this is a popular
tourist destination: we strongly recommend participants to book their
accommodation in advance. Some suggestions can be found on the
conference website.
