Many of the villages of the Cilento are dying. Most have elderly populations that are not being replenished, because young people have moved and are still moving away to cities.
Certainly the world will not be much different if these villages eventually die out. But it could be different if they live. A way of life exists there that has existed for centuries, and some villages people still speak dialects that are a mixture of Ancient Greek and Albanian.
It is very sad, and the only hope is that the people of Cilento realise that they must do something drastic to avert their extinction.
