Definition: The word "napolitana" has a rich history in Italy, originating from the Roman people who settled in northern Italy around 1300 BC, known as the Romani, or Romani tribe. In medieval times, it was used to refer to any person of Romano-British descent, and the term eventually became more generic. The word "napolitana" was originally used by Italian feudal lords who resided in the region around Naples (now Italy). It was also used by English-speaking communities that had settled in the city. Over time, it has been gradually adopted by various regions and countries to refer to a specific type of person. In recent years, "napolitana" is often used to denote someone belonging to this particular ethnic or cultural group within Italy. For example, if you were visiting Naples, you might be asked for "napolitana," which stands for "Neapolitan," or "Italian." The word "napolitana" has a specific etymology and meaning that is distinct from the more general term "napoli." The former refers to any person of Romano-British descent, while the latter refers to anyone belonging to this particular ethnic or cultural group within Italy.
