the only arberesh village in sicily is piana dei greci, later called piana degli albanesi, are matranga's from that village?
anyway their albanian acestors, if they have, settled in 1500, they are too italianized to be called albanians
Exactly.
We've talked about this ad nauseum. The Albanians in that part of Sicily have been there for 500 years. They're culturally Italian. End of story.
