Parco Nazionale dell'Appennino Lucano
Val d'Agri - Lagonegrese

The Lucanica, typical sausage made in a Basilicata area around the Picerno municipality, is more than a gastronomic product. It is the symbol and result of a Lucan peasant society strictly connected to the cult of the pig. A civilization which has managed to preserve their values and traditions recognised since Roman times to the point where this Lucan sausage's name has been brought to other Italian regions, such as Lombardy and Veneto.
