🌍 Ruina Dantesca. An accumulation of rocks, known for being mentioned in Dante's Inferno, Canto XII. In Longfellow's translation, "Such as that ruin is which in the flank // Smote, on this side of Trent, the Adige, // Either by earthquake or by failing stay, // For from the mountain's top, from which it moved, // Unto the plain the cliff is shattered so, // Some path 'twould give to him who was above."
