there is 1 gellipoli i know of and it is located in Turkey. host of Anzac War. a legend land.. it is rly weird that there is another place with the same name.
sorry to tell you that the italian gallipoli is the "original" one. in fact it has a longer history than the turkish town with the same name. it was founded by the messapians (of mixed Cretan-Illyrian origin) about 25-26 centuries ago (if i correctly remember) with the name "Anxa" and then colonised by the greeks who called it "Kale'Polis" and then "Kallipolis" (both meaning "beautiful city"). :-)
type gallipoli on google or wikipedia and see which 1 is more famous :=) Plus Our galipollis is very old too. IT goes as old as B.C . Turkish gallipoli was a Roman Catholic city in the passed before turks took it. Your gallipoli is beautiful too , no worries ;)
btw, italy realy looks like MEditerian Turkey. I think bnoth of them are mediterian culture and only difference should be religion, i assume. Gallipolu is just same like our south summer cities :p nice place
yes a great town...i am from collepasso but i live in germany ...but i come every year to gallipoli...
