Fabio Oliveri († 2014, age 77) was our friend, he lived in Palermo
(Italy). He was a lecturer of philosophy and history at
Galilei High School in Palermo (liceoggalileipalermo.edu.it) and a profound connoisseur of the Semitic peoples
of Sicily and of ancient languages.
He owned a small house in the wilderness near Prizzi,
which also plays a central role in two of his publications («Il Casale giudaico Pietra-Ciaramitaro nel comune di Prizzi»,
«Contrade e insediamenti nel Comune di Prizzi»). His lively tours in museums or on hikes were profound,
yet with humor and remain unforgettable. He was a fine person.
