Although the Italian city of Naples is known for its delicious pizza industry, a food historian said the pizza originates in the nearby Lazio region and not in Naples, which has caused uproar among Naples residents.
The Origin of Pizza :
Giuseppe Nuca has found the origin of the word "pizza" in church records in some cities, including the city of Gita and the city of Lazio, because it was found in the form of part of the leases written in the Dark Ages in 977 AD. According to the documents, Ka was required to hand over 12 tablets of pizza to the bishop on Christmas Day and Easter in the form of batches for the use of the land on which a local mill was built. Twelve pizza and a piece of meat were usually ordered at Christmas and 12 pizzas and a pair of chicken In the Easter holiday.

Naples or Lazio?
Giuseppe told ‘’ La Repubblica’’ that although the documents were written in Latin, the text clearly confirms the word "pizza" in the phrase "Do duodecim pizzas". Therefore, pizza is one of the first words of the Italian working language. There are a lot of historical stories in Naples that illustrate the great relationship between the city and the favorite eaters in the countries of the world, but all these tales emerged in the millennium that followed the writing of these documents. In 1870, Margarita's wife, Margherita of Savoy, honored her by visiting the city of Naples by offering a pizza that blends red, tomato, white, cheese and green basil to represent Italy's national flag.

Industry in Naples :

Since then Naples has been making pizza in its own way. In 2008, Real Pizza and the Association of Neapolitan Pizza-makers sent an invitation to the European Union to complete regulations to introduce people to the original Naples pizza. Where experts say it is necessary to contain the original Margarita pizza from Naples and 150 calories per 100 grams and use a certain number of tomatoes, mozzarella cheese and salt, as the laws stipulate that they must be baked in a firewood oven at 485 Celsius.

Pizza was a regular meal in Italy in the popular neighborhoods prepared by the mothers of the first after returning from school and after the opening of the first shop selling pizza spread significantly in Italian cities.
