орудие для добывания кораллов из глубин (For centuries, the “ingegno” has been used for coral fishing, otherwise also known as the "croce dei corallari". It was a St. Andrew's cross, made up of two sturdy wooden beams made heavier by large stones. On its arms, at different distances to the end, bunches of old hemp nets were left hanging. The instrument was lowered from the large boat and fitted with a Latin sail.
The ingegno was dragged to the seabed, reaching and exceeding 150 meters in depth. The nets ended up getting entangled in the coral formations, thus allowing the coral branches that remained entangled in the net to be uprooted.  aucella.com) |
