What history changes for visitors

You begin to see terrain as process, not background. Road changes, slope textures, and access patterns become evidence, not coincidence.

Field lens

Observation	Historical hint
Fresh, dark flow texture	More recent surface expression
Weathered, fragmented fields	Longer exposure and age
Reworked access corridors	Post-event adaptation

On Etna, history is under your feet, not only in archives.
