In the ancient road layout of the Greek era, made up of vertical and horizontal axes of the historic center of Naples, declared a UNESCO heritage site in 1995, there is a small street that has become famous throughout the world for its artisan tradition: via San Gregorio Armeno.

Rising near the ancient Greek agora, here they manufactured votive statues for the goddess Ceres, whose tradition has been handed down over the centuries through paganism and reached the Bourbon era, when the "fashion" of the Nativity spread with King Charles, a typical representation of the Nativity of Jesus, through the production of figurines and cork and papier mache scenes that reproduced the Naples of those years.
