PARROCCHIA MARIA SS. ASSUNTA, Polizzi Generosa, Sicilia
MIRANTE MIRANTI
Mirante ? ben diffuso nell'area che comprende il Lazio centromeridionale, il casertano ed il napoletano, in Calabria nel catanzarese e crotonese ed in Sicilia nell'ennese, Miranti ? tipicamente siciliano, del palermitano e di Petralia Soprana e Polizzi Generosa in particolare, di dovrebbe trattare di forme aferetiche del termine almirante o ammirante (comandante, capo, ammiraglio) (vedi ALMIRANTE).

Southern Italian: from a short form of Almirante, an occupational or honorific name (or possibly a nickname for someone with a self-important manner), from Spanish almirante [admiral], which is from Arabic al-amir. [commander]
1500-10 MIRANTI, Jacobus (mauro battezatto) sentence: 'absolutus'
wife of Jacobus (maura battezata) sentence: 'absoluta"
Battezatto:Ê getauft, baptized, ristitud, battezzato, batisado

MAURA: Feminine form of Italian: Mauro, meaning "dark-skinned; Moor." Circa 46BC the Roman army entered West Africa where they encountered black Africans which they called "Maures" from the Greek adjective 'mauros,' meaning dark or black." Though the word "Moor" originally seems to have been meant to indicate Blacks, it in time came to be applied to Muslims in general, especially the Berbers. An even greater misconception is that the Moors were "Black", when they were actually mostly Caucasian Berbers.

In discussing the ethnic foundations of Morocco, Brace says nothing of "Moors," preferring to use only the term "Berber." But Brace's designation of the "Berber" language as "Hamitic," is most telling. It is significant to note that the term " Moabitarum" is very frequently used by medieval-era European writers to describe the "Moorish" inhabitants of northwest Africa or Mauretania. "The Berbers come to the Maghrib at least as early as the second millennium B.C. ("Aurignacian, Solutrian and Magdalenian stages") sixteen centuries before the Arab conquest... it is judged that they came from the east, perhaps the Red Sea or Egypt, (emphasis mine) possibly further."
