The brothers Emilio and Attilio Bandiera were two heroes of the Italian Risorgimento, executed by firing squad from justice in Calabria on July 25, 1844, after a failed attempt to raise the local population of the Kingdom of the Two Sicilies against the government of Ferdinand II Bourbon, in optical of the national unification of Italy. In place of capture, in the Valley of Rovito, it stands the "Cippo of Stragola" in memorial of the event.
