At the start of the volume, the author introduces the unique characteristics of the two shores of the Adriatic, noting their stark differences in topography and natural features. The introductory chapter provides a scientific overview of the geology and ecology of the region, including details about island formations, sea depth, and vegetation.

The opening portion sets the stage for a detailed unraveling of the cultural narratives that ensue, promising insights into the interplay between the land and the varied historical influences shaping the identity of the Adriatic's communities.
