  • Morella, Castellón

    Morella is an ancient walled city located on a hill-top in the province of Castellón, Valencian Community, Spain. The town is the capital and administrative centre of the comarca of Els Ports, in the historic Maestrat (Maestrazgo) region.

    There are traces of settlement by the Iberians, succeeded by the Greeks and Romans, Visigoths and the Moors. From the early 17th century to the Spanish Civil War, the town was often fought over, due to its strategic situation between the Ebro and the coastal plain of Valencia. Morella is part of the Taula del Sénia free association of municipalities.

    Every six years the citizens celebrate the Sexenni, a commemoration of the town's recovery from the plague in the seventeenth century. Tourism now plays an important part in the local economy, along with agriculture. In the 20th century the town and surrounding area became depopulated, a trend that has only been reversed in the early 21st century. The population of Morella in 2008 was 2,854, having declined from a figure of 7,335 in 1900 (INE).

    List of craters on Mars: H-N

    This is a list of craters on Mars. There are hundreds of thousands of impact crater on Mars, but only some of them have names. This list here only contains named Martian craters starting with the letter H N (see also lists for A G and O Z).

    Large Martian craters (greater than 60 km in diameter) are named after famous scientists and science fiction authors; smaller ones (less than 60 km in diameter) get their names from towns on Earth. Craters cannot be named for living people, and small crater names are not intended to be commemorative - that is, a small crater isn't actually named after a specific town on Earth, but rather its name comes at random from a pool of terrestrial place names, with some exceptions made for craters near landing sites. Latitude and longitude are given as planetographic coordinates with west longitude.

    Morella

    by: Drakkar

    Morella was a friend of mine
    I never loved her, but we married
    She made me happy in a way I can't explain
    A kind of mystic happiness
    Talking of philosophy we spent many hours
    May awareness of yourself still survive to death?
    I was very happy then, listenin' to her
    Till a day, a fatal day, joy was turned to hate!
    Hating my Morella I wished her to die
    Illness fell upon her, she began to fade
    She told me to listen, "I've something to tell:
    Who you never loved in life, you will love in death"
    [chorus]
    "This is the day of days, the day to live and die, for all the daughters of death and sky
    Tonight we're gonna die, but I will live again
    The time of pain for you has began"
    Growin' up day by day, pretty little girl
    Our daughter I did love more than you can now
    So resembling to her mother, too wise for a child
    I never gave a name to her, until she was ten
    I had to baptize her, we went to the church
    And the priest he asked me the name of the girl
    Still I don't know why "Morella" did I say
    Screaming "Here I am!" my little daughter died
    [chorus]
    And when I went to our family's tomb to bury the second Morella, I didn't find any sign of the
