History
In 1461 near Monte Gargano in the southeastern Apennine mountains a group of 5000 immigrants from Albania fled the enculturation of the Ottoman Turks and Islam. They were sent by the great Albanian Skanderbeg, or Gjergj Kastrioti i Krujës, George Castriota. This part of Apulia was granted to the incomers by the king of Naples.
