Bonifacio de' Pitati, known as Bonifacio Veronese (Verona, 1487 - Venice, 19 October 1553) - Muzio Scevola in front of Porsenna - Museo del Settecento Veneziano Ca' Rezzonico, Venice
Gaio Muzio Scevola è una delle figure più famose e rappresentative della leggenda romana. Essendo Roma assediata dagli Etruschi guidati da Porsenna, il giovane Gaio Muzio decise di mettere a morte il re avversario. Passato il Tevere, entrò, senza che il nemico se ne avvedesse, nel campo etrusco ma uccise per errore il segretario del re. Arrestato e minacciato di tormenti e di morte sul rogo, stese la mano su un braciere e non la tolse finche non fu consumata. Il re, ammirato, ordina la sua liberazione. Allora Muzio gli rivela che trecento giovani hanno congiurato con lui per attentare alla sua vita. Atterrito, Porsenna offre pace ai Romani, i quali poi dimostrano la loro gratitudine a Muzio donandogli un terreno oltre il Tevere, cui rimase il nome di prata Mucia. Dalla perdita della mano destra Muzio ebbe poi il cognome di Scaevola (mancino).
Gaius Mucius Scaevola is one of the most famous and representative figures of Roman legend. As Rome was besieged by the Etruscans led by Porsenna, the young Gaius Mucius decided to put the opposing king to death. Having crossed the Tiber, he entered the Etruscan camp without the enemy noticing, but killed the king's secretary by mistake. Arrested and threatened with torment and death at the stake, he put his hand on a brazier and did not remove it until it was consumed. The king, in admiration, ordered his release. Muzio then reveals to him that three hundred young men have conspired with him to make an attempt on his life. Frightened, Porsenna offers peace to the Romans, who then show their gratitude to Mucius by giving him a piece of land beyond the Tiber, which was named Prata Mucia. From the loss of his right hand Mucius then took the surname Scaevola (left-handed).

The Santomera dam was designed and built with the main purpose of its serving as a defence for the Vega Baja del Segura against the disastrous floodings of the Santomera and Abanilla wadis.
The Project for the dam formed part of the “Project for the retention and exploitation of floodwaters of the Ramblas de Santomera and Abanilla, by means of the Santomera reservoir and as flood protection of the Vega Baja del Segura”, which was drawn up by the Confederación Hidrográfica del Segura in August 1950.
General view of Santomera reservoir
Due to the characteristics of the materials of the foundations and the abutments (especially the left bank abutment), important seepage occurred, although it was decided not to tackle this problem on account of the exclusive use of the reservoir for the purpose of flood abatement.
Later, in 1986, and regarding the possibility of using the reservoir to store waters from the Tagus-Segura Distribution Canals, the “Impermeabilization of the left embankment of the Santomera reservoir (05/86)” was drawn up, and injections and surface treatments were carried out from the existing inspection gallery.
These works were carried out, although seepage continued (but to a lesser extent following the treatments carried out) until nearby quarrying was ceased, since its explosions had been causing vibrations which were incompatible with the sealing of the left bank of the massif. Once the explosions ceased, seepage gradually decreased and finally disappeared completely..
Nevertheless, today the reservoir cannot be used as a regulating reservoir of the Distribution Canals on account of the high salinity of the waters proceeding from Rambla Salada which are stored in the reservoir.
This environmental conditioning means that the reservoir cannot be used for irrigation purposes, being used exclusively for flood abatement.
Santomera dam, made of mass concrete with a straight ground plan, has only one characteristic cross section. It comprises 14 blocks separated by concertina expansion joints every 15.00 m. Its total length at the crest is 205.79 m, with a width of 4.00 m on the latter. The total height is 51.50 m above its foundations.The total volume of cement used for the main dam was 103,212.463 m³ and 25,583.369 m³ for the stilling basin.
The crest of the dam is situated at a height of 101.50 and it has a 3.00 metre wide road which is protected by concrete paving. Two pavements 0.50 metres wide run along both sides of the road. Both upstream and downstream, the crest is protected on both sides by concrete parapet walls which are 40 cm high and 54 cm wide, on which railings have been installed, made of 100 mm diameter metal tubes.The lowest level of the foundations is 50.00 m, with the bed at this point situated at 64.50 m. The average thickness of the foundations is therefore 14.50m.
The body of the dam houses a network of inspection and drainage galleries, on two levels, with their corresponding communicating stairways.

En el campo en el que me encontraba, aparte de rosas también tenían otro tipo de flores, las Zantedeschia, (los lirios de toda la vida) eso en vez de ser un campo parecía un invernadero de una floristería. Alhama De Murcia (Murcia)
