Giacomo Bove, born in Maranzana on April 23, 1852, was one of the most important Italian navigators and explorers of the nineteenth century. A name almost completely forgotten, yet a glacier, a mountain and a river in Patagonia bear its name, as well as a cape on Dickson Island beyond the Arctic circle and also the Italian scientific base in the Antarctic.
