SCHIAPPACASSE

Schiappacasse is specific to the Genoese, in particular Genoa, Camogli and Rapallo, it would seem originating in the area of Neirone always in the Genoese, should derive from a nickname originated from the craft of port laborer or a warehouse, that is, of the one who in Sciàpa or Scèpa dialect (breaks or better opens) crates of packaging transported by ships, once they arrive at their destination in warehouses.
