caryfukA grid pattern of small squares covers the rusty surface of this specimen, set in concrete paving. At the top are the distinct inscriptions 'NFCT' and 'EN124 B125', which the Institute of Lidology believes indicates its classification and potential purpose in infrastructure. Small vegetation grows between the joints and in the central opening, indicating its long-term exposure to the weather.
Manhole covers in Taormina
caryfukThe surface of this specimen shows a distinctive rusty patina, complemented by a regular arrangement of rectangular projections that serve to provide traction. The central section bears the inscriptions 'MCP SPA' and 'EN124 C250', classifying it as a robust piece of urban infrastructure. The presence of the 'ICIM' logo and keyhole in the centre adds a degree of technical specification to this functional artefact.
caryfukThe surface of this iron specimen, an object of interest to the Institute of Lidology, is covered with a regular grid of squares, distorted by a central logo and an elongated keyhole. The distinct inscriptions DAGO and N124B125400X400 indicate its origin and technical specifications. The surrounding stone paving testifies to its integration into the urban environment, where it fulfils its unobtrusive but crucial function.
caryfukThe characteristic geometric arrow-shaped pattern covers most of the surface of this ductile iron specimen, which is typical of robust engineering elements. The central keyhole, now home to small vegetation, testifies to its long-term integration into the urban ecosystem. Inscriptions such as 'VIRLINZI S.P.A.' and 'C250' provide key taxonomic markers for the Institute of Humanology.
caryfukThe regular diamond pattern, typical of cast iron hatches, dominates this example, whose surface is heavily marked by corrosion. A small rectangular hole, probably for a handling tool, is visible in the centre. The inscriptions 'ENEL' and 'MMONTINI', together with the marking 'B 125', provide valuable data for the Institute of Lidology on its functional classification and manufacturer.
