Eagle Hack Lab / Simplemachines HQ, an hystorical place that merits a visit...

Situated on sacred soil, atop an ancient church's foundations (over the catacombs),

which dates back to 300 AD, this significant church was the first to safeguard material

remains of Saint Agatha. It stands over Roman ruins and alongside one of the town's

oldest streets, named "Santa Maria di Betlemme.".

Before its transformation into a Templar church, this site served as a temple from time

immemorial, reflecting the common practice of constructing new churches or temples

over older sacred sites.

Now known as Palazzo Beneventano, the building features two prominent marble

angels flanking an impressive iron door that stands 8 meters high and very thick,

resembling a fortress. These angels, symbolizing protection, draw the eye,

while two dragons, positioned at the end of the grand hallway, complete

the entrance, contributing to a sense of balance and wholeness.

Inside, the center of the hallway is graced by four prestigious

marble Ionic columns, dating back 2,000 years. Some claim

these columns originate from the church's foundations, while

others believe they were rescued from the nearby amphitheater.

There are also assertions that they were brought here by agents,

along with unidentified artifacts now buried in the Roman foundations,

lost in the mysterious legends surrounding the building. The current

structure, built in 1840, rests atop Roman foundations that rise

several meters high, above 10 meters, where the church has

been built and rebuilt over the centuries, always preserving

the underlying Roman level.

Eagle Hack Lab and Simplemachines HQ occupy few rooms

in the GF located within the old stables that once housed horses.

we have given new space for Simplemachines members and created a Lab for Social Purpose IT research ...

Eagle-Hack-Lab

Some philosophical aspects on the names

We like the Eagle Symbol since it is a symbol of Freedom (sometime abused and with different meaning).
But this is not the only reason why we pointed to eagle nebula for the naming of the machines and the lab itself.

This is very simple, the eagle nebula is a star forming cloud/region

and most of our projects have star naming!?!

(§ Sagittarius A* Spiral City and

seven multiple stars --> Mizar, Alcor, Avior, Mira, Rigel, Superwasp, Trapezium).

The Eagle nebula is very popular so that together with Orion Nebula,

is one of the most know nebula in the sky.

Eagle nebula and Pillars of Creation

Inside the nebula we have the pillars of creations, for analogy the pillars are helpful to create stars (the projects) So that we have Pillar1, Pillar2, Pillar3,  -- m16 as server BlackPillar  -->
The Pillars of Creation

We are recently investigating to run more powerful Clients, as Atomic PI with 1Gbit LAN as VNC terminals.

So beside 4-5 machines + a couple of Laptops and low end x86 (mostly new SBC like Atomic PI)

the eagle lab will not extend.

Some machines has been sold, other purchased new.

so this images have purely historic information
