S. Giacomo is a small hamlet in the province of Ragusa. Located in the heart of a green area with very rich pastures. The town is divided into small districts: S. Giacomo, Bellocozzo, La Torre and Montesano.
Popular of about eight hundred inhabitants live in sheep farming (barrels, sinisters and sheep) and agriculture; rich in the cultivation of cereals (oven, barley and maize), vegetables (zucchini, tomatoes, cauliflowers, tomatoes), fruit trees (pears, apricots, figs, prickly figs, plums). The countryside is full of olive, carob trees and almonds.
It is a very ancient territory rich in charming places where there are still characteristic caves and beautiful fossils. S. Giacomo rises on a hill and, right on the top of it, there is an ancient Tower.
Before reaching the tower, at the beginning of a narrow road that leads to it, there is a pole with a Latin writing that appears to be dedicated to the Madonna. The tower appears to have been built around 1750 by the Count S. Giacomo the owner of a relatively extended fiefdom. It was entrusted after the Barone Musso, who in 1833 made a today derisory church build.
Near the tower there is a very high circular structure, inside which there is a staircase leading to the top from where you can see the whole view and the nearby tower. From there the "Sisters" began to observe how the people were executed that did not follow their orders.
Of the Torre there is also a kind of fork guillotta and under it there is a pit where the bodies of the executed people appear to have ended. In the basement of the tower there is a very large cave where the inhabitants were hiding to escape the enemies of the Baron.
In the territory of S. Giacomo there is a valley called Cava dei Servi surrounded by rocks, now worn out due to natural phenomena. In 1693 there was an earthquake that destroyed the whole of Ragusa Ibla and it appears that the epicenter was right in this quarry. In the void of the rocks sometimes you can see the branches of wild fig, bacolaro and other climbing plants; there are also very large driveways. At the foot of the cliffs there is a lot of vegetation: willows, eastern plateaus, ash trees surrounded by trees and other trees suffocated by oaks and canine roses. As for fauna as well as birds such as blinds, marina in autumn and dormer in the hot season, there is also the wild cat and the hytrica.
The quarry of the servants is crossed by an tributary of the Tellaro, the Tellesimo that shapes the Gorge of the bell tower in its course a circular-shaped pond where it has not yet been possible to find the fund.
In this stream there are trout, crabs, hay and lizards. The loop of the stream, in the quarry of the servants, has isolated a real acropoli.
It is said that it was a destination of ancient settlements, because there are burials in artificial gratiques hollowed in rock; these are flat and circular tombs. Along the loop there are seven slabs of limestone in a vertical position, of the true orchards, above these elements there are sheets that close the circular space to false domes, this is "dolmenic" architecture.
In the Cava di Servi were brought to light the remains of a "sepulcret" with "architrjsmos". The grutticelle burial and the dolmit are dating back to the bronze age, while the "enchitrimos" sepulchre dates back to the late bronze age.
The area called "Vecchio Palmento" was very populated because it was the place where the grapes were grinding.
The owner of the estate was the Barone Musso who lived there with his family.
The Baron divided his feuds to his tenants without land, who cultivated them to vineyards. They paid a "Turrado" ie, payment in wheat: for each mound of land, two mounds of wheat. The land used was given to the peasants for thirty-nine years, and, then, returned to the Baron.
Inside the building there are 19 rooms, including 7 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
