ZAPATA | ZAPPATA | ZAPPATO

Zapata, almost unique, it would seem of the Emilian area, Zappata has a log in Comacchio in Ferrarese and presences in Ravenna and in Bolognese, Zappato, almost unique, it would seem Sicilian, should derive from nicknames, even dialectal, based on the term Zappata (Shot of Zappa), perhaps to remember the profession of the ancestor or a particular episode of the life of the ancestor, remember that there is a way to say hoed on the feet, to say that the action made has produced nocumulento to those who made it.
