Ciociaria ((:tʃotʃaˈriːa)) is the name of a traditional region of Central Italy without a defined border nor historical identity.〔Roberto Almagià, ''Enciclopedia italiana'', vol. X, Roma 1931〕 The name was adopted by a fascist movement of Frosinone as an ethnical denomination for the province of Frosinone, when it was created in 1927.〔Alonzi L., ''Il concetto di Ciociaria dalla costutuzione della provincia di Frosinone a oggi'' («L'Italia ritagliata. L'identità storico-culturale delle regioni: il caso del Lazio meridionale ed orientale», Società Geografica Italiana, Roma 1997)〕 In the Middle Ages, this region was referred to as ''Campagna''. The local dialect, now known as ''ciociaro'', was earlier referred to as ''campanino''. In more recent times, the term ''Campagna Romana'', or Roman Campagna, a favorite subject of countless painters from all over Europe, has referred to the adjoining region to the north of ''Ciociaria'', but part of the Province of Rome. The name appears to be derived from the ''ciocia'' (plural ''cioce''), the traditional footwear still worn by a few sheep and cattle herders in the Central Apennines. ''Ciociaria'' is also the name of asteroid 21799 (see List of named asteroids (A-E), List of asteroids (21001-22000), and Meanings of asteroid names (21001-22000)) . ==Origin of the name== For the first time the term appears in a map of Papal States, in which a land in ''Campagna e Marittima'' province is named ''Ciocciarìa''.〔Beranger E. M. & Sigismondi F., ''Il ducato di Alvito nell'Età dei Gallio'' (Atti), Banca della Ciociaria, Alvito 1997, p. 37〕 On the other hand many others sources attest another variant, that was in use since 18th century: ''Ciocerìa''.〔Scotoni L., ''Un nome territoriale recente: la Ciociaria (Lazio)'', in ''La geografia delle scuole'', XXII (1977), n. 4., pp. 199-207〕〔https://books.google.com/books?q=Cioceria&btnG=Cerca+nei+libri〕 The name Ciociaria comes from the primitive footwear of its inhabitants called "ciocie". These "sandals" were put on by the Latins, that will be identified with the appellative of Ciociari in the following centuries, hence "Ciociaria"; now that kind of shoes are not used in everyday life, but remain as a traditional symbol. They are worn by folk groups members of the province of Frosinone or on the historical feasts. The ciocia is an ancient kind of shoe, with a simple and primitive form, that doesn't wrap completely the foot, because the upper part is open. The foot is anchored to the ciocia by an interlacement of leather laces, inserted in special side holes; so the foot sticks to this special "sandal", making it sure and comfortable. The origins of this particular kind of shoe are ancient. A similar shoe was already present among the Etruscans, the Hernici, primitive inhabitants (probably came from the Middle East, descendants from the people of Hatti or from the Illyrians) of this area, and between the mountainous regions of the Yugoslavia and Greece. In fact, the ciocie are the result of different transformations. The first historical quotations is in Virgil, in book VII of the'' Aeneid'', where he describes some warriors coming from the Monti Ernici and the Aniene valley, that wore "a rough to put on of rough leather." 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「Ciociaria」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
