Agrigento, on the south coast of Sicily, has some of the best-preserved 
ancient Greek buildings outside of Greece itself.? It was my first close 
encounter with Greek temples.

Temple of Heracles (aka Hercules):

A curly-horned goat, a descendant of goats brought to Sicily by the 
Arabs around 1,000 years ago:
