island, the historical centre of the city of Syracuse, Sicily-Italy.  
Syracuse is very famous for its ancient ruins, with particular  
reference to the Roman Amphitheater, Greek Theatre, and the Orecchio  
di Dionisio (Ear of Dionisio) that is a limestone cave shaped like a  
human ear. Syracuse is also the city where the greatest mathematician  
Archimede was born.
