(2013). Les citadelles urbaines en Corse : patrimonialisatin d'un territoire particulier. Revue Etudes Caribéennes, n°26, ()〕 According to legend, Christopher Columbus supposedly came from Calvi, which at the time was part of the Genoese Empire. Because the often subversive elements of the island gave its inhabitants a bad reputation, he would have been expected to mask his exact birthplace. == Geography == Calvi is located on the northwest coast of the island of Corsica, from Bastia and from L'Île-Rousse. It is the fifth-largest commune in Corsica; however, the arrondissement is the smallest. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Calvi, Haute-Corse」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
