Lipari Islands

a group of volcanic islands in the Tyrrhenian Sea, north of Sicily, belonging to Italy. The archipelago consists of ten islets and seven islands (Lipari, Salina, Vulcano, Stromboli, Filicudi, Alicudi, and Panarea) with a total area of 117 sq km; they are formed primarily of basalt lavas and tuffs. There are active volcanoes on Vulcano and Stromboli (926 m). Olives, figs, and grapes are grown, and wine is exported. There are deposits of sulfur.

In 260 B.C., during the First Punic War (264–241 B.C.) the Roman navy (113 ships) destroyed the Carthaginian squadron (50 ships), which was surprised in one of Sicily’s bays near the Lipari Islands. During the fascist dictatorship in Italy (1922–43) antifascists were exiled to the islands.
