today to tell you a story about medieval markets, spices and ancient gods .
During the Christmas season, I did some ride in downtown Milan to leave my Pigotte UNICEF and also to buy some Christmas gifts.
But according to you those life will discuss ways of "fashion", and conventional shopping in the city? Of course not! It brings you into the medieval Milan ...
... and precisely in the Loggia dei Mercanti , which is located under the arches in Via Dante and leads to Piazza dei Mercanti, which you can see in the image above (photo taken from this page ). It 's the place where the trades were done once, and where even now you can find some of the most typical and delicious stalls in the city, especially in the food.
Thanks to my Pauline, who has an eye for these things, we discovered a feast of spices , which led me to turn on the trail of an ancient deity. The banquet exposed fragrant spices: we made Indian curry and chilli and smoked in homage we received a large root ginger.
Back home, I searched the website for those who market these specialties, ie society Enodia . 
Named by the appeal of a goddess of pre-Indo-European origin, Enodia Hecate, the goddess of the triple aspect - young adult and old - whose effectiveness was placed to protect the crossing. He has the ability to move in three worlds, that of the living, the dead and the gods, carrying his sacred torches. It 'was also associated with the moon phases. Her sacred animal is the dog, which she herself may take the form.
E 'a goddess and the ancestral mystery, and it is perhaps for this reason that is often taken as a symbol of witchcraft.
