Mount Etna, one of the most active volcanoes in the world, is steeped in mythology and legend. According to ancient Greek mythology, it is said to be the home of the giant Typhon, who was imprisoned beneath the mountain after being defeated by Zeus. Additionally, the Sicilian poet Virgil described Etna as a place where the god Hephaestus forged weapons for the gods. Local folklore also includes stories of miraculous events and divine interventions related to the volcano's eruptions, reinforcing its significance in Sicilian culture.
