UNO SGUARDO VERSO IL CARSO

Il Carso-Kras è un territorio esteso dalle ex province di Gorizia e Trieste alla Slovenia fino alla Croazia, caratterizzato dalla medesima conformazione geologica, fatta di rocce carbonatiche che subiscono una lenta dissoluzione a causa di pioggia e vento con la creazione di cavità e depressioni quali pozzi verticali e doline, così peculiare che in tutto il mondo aree dalla composizione del suolo simile sono chiamate “zone carsiche” e fenomeni naturali di questo tipo sono definiti con il termine scientifico di “carsismo". Un territorio accomunato non solo dall'essere stato teatro di violente battaglie durante la Prima Guerra Mondiale tra le milizie italiane e quelle austro-ungariche, ma soprattutto da manufatti simili - i muretti a secco, che marcano i terreni coltivabili e recintano i pascoli, i piccoli borghi dalle vie strette per essere meno esposti alla bora - analoghe produzioni enogastronomiche, una precisa biodiversità di flora e fauna, difficilmente riscontrabile in altri angoli del mondo.

A LOOK AT THE KARST

The Karst-Kras region extends from the former provinces of Gorizia and Trieste to Slovenia and Croatia. It shares a similar geological composition, made of carbonate rocks slowly dissolved by rain and wind, creating cavities and depressions such as vertical shafts and sinkholes. This unique geology is so distinctive that areas with similar soil compositions are known worldwide as "karst zones," and natural phenomena of this type are scientifically defined as "karst." This region shares not only the fact that it was the site of violent battles during the First World War between Italian and Austro-Hungarian armies, but also, above all, similar structures—dry-stone walls marking arable land and enclosing pastures, small villages with narrow streets to avoid exposure to the Bora wind—similar food and wine production, and a distinct biodiversity of flora and fauna rarely found elsewhere in the world.
