Like Jamalica Bay the Venetian lagoon spreads over a vast area of land barely sul merged, with an intricate network of narrow and winding channels to carry the flow of the places the land has risen snffictently to form marshy islets, “Just as we might choose fishing settlementa of Raunt, Broad Channel and Goose Creek to- day as the site of an Venice, so the wonder city of the Adriatic was built on the similar is)ands of Rivoalto, or Rialto, They re protected from the waves of the open sea by the Lidi, as the Jamaica Bay villages are sheltered by the long arms of Rockaway Beach and Coney Island. “On the Lidl were the original settlements that led to the establieh ment of the city of Venice on the islands of the lagoons, When At- tila and his Hun hordes swept down on Europe in 452 many of the in- habitants of the regions farther in- land took refuge on the Lidi. Irom 742 to 809 the seat of government of the region was Malamocco, a few miles south of the Lido bathing re- sort on the same island. The en- croachments of the waves during the ‘spring and autumn storms, and the vulnerability to attacks from enemy navies, led, in 809, to a general exodus to the islands on which the present city is built. Great Sea Wall The Lidi today consist of principal long sandy islands, divided by narow water channels, and scarcely far enough above the water to be distinguished from clouds when seen from a distance. The Litorale, or Beach of Malamocco is the largest and most important, as it contains both the famous bathing resort and the small village of Malamocco. The Litorale of Pelles- trina is a strung-out village of fishermen and gardener Along i are portions of the great sea-wal for although the Adriatic its daughter from the guns of the heavy-draught vessels of the midd three protectr eges, it exacted constant homage in | stone walls and breakwaters, The Litorale of St. Erasmo, north of the Lido, is shorter and less important. “At one time there were five por on the channels bet n the island but that at St. Erasmo was closec to increass the volume of water at the Lido port nearby. “The amount of tidewater that entered the lagoons through port channels bears upon the welfare of the city.
