Ponte - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (152 words)
Ponte (meaning bridge in both Italian and in Portuguese) may refer to any one of many towns in Italy and Portuguese-speaking countries, among which:
Ponte in Valtellina (Valtellina), in the Province of Sondrio, Italy, birthplace of the astronomer Giuseppe Piazzi
Ponte, one of the rioni or official districts of the modern city of Rome
Valtellina: Information From Answers.com (461 words)
With the adjoining counties of Bormio and Chiavenna, the Valtellina was seized (1512) from Milan by the Grisons, which subsequently ruled the district—its richest and most populous possession—as a subject territory.
By the start of the Thirty Years War (1618–48), the stoutly Roman Catholic inhabitants of the Valtellina were ready for revolt against the Grisons, the majority of whose population was Protestant; in 1620 they rose and massacred their Protestant masters.
The Valtellina passed (1815) to the Lombardo-Venetian kingdom (held by Austria), and later it passed (1859) to Italy.
