This tombstone found in La Zisa in Palermo is an excellent physical representation of the continuous conquests of the island of Sicily. Here the inscription is written in four languages: Arabic, Greek, Latin and Hebrew. This stone gives a great example of how when Sicily was conquered the past was not forgotten, but rather incorporated into the new society of the time.
