Clear, luxuriant, energetic, the water springs from the Matese mountains, flows through the woods and, as an element of nature in perpetual movement, manifests itself, permeates the soil, cares for and generates life. In Italic culture, the water resource is the sacred symbol that welcomes man’s devotion and reveals the divine intercessions of Mefitis, goddess of the female universe capable of showing men what is hidden. Like water, it changes in shape and strength, nourishes and provides sustenance. The prayers addressed to the one who is in the middle, between heaven and earth, are raised with the breath of the trees so that domestic affections and agricultural work are protected, human and animal procreation are fostered, there is support in the passages of life or in the transhumance of herds during the year. Among the votive offerings offered in the sanctuary of San Pietro dei Cantoni, a splendid bronze statuette depicting Mefitis, a gift from Trebis Dekis, was found. The goddess has the appearance of a young woman and holds a migratory duck in her left hand, a small bird that symbolizes the alternation of the seasons and is a connector between the celestial vault and the earthly world, as it is able to fly and live by the sweet waters in search of refreshment. Like a spring generated from the belly of the earth, with her vibrant flow Mefitis manifests her multifaceted energy, accompanies men in the seasons of life and offers her divine protection to those who entrust themselves to her.
