The history of the last name Iandoli

The surname IANDOLI is of Italian origin, deriving from the regions of Campania and Puglia in Southern Italy. It is believed to have emerged in the late medieval period, around the 13th or 14th century.

IANDOLI is thought to have originated from an occupational surname, referring to individuals who were involved in the production or trade of almonds. The name may have roots in the Italian word "mandorla," meaning almond, or the Latin word "amandola," also meaning almond.

In some early records from the 15th century, the name appears with slightly different spellings, such as "Iandola" or "Iandule." These variations likely stem from regional dialects and the evolution of the Italian language over time.

One of the earliest known mentions of the IANDOLI name can be found in a census record from the town of Salerno, in Campania, dating back to the late 1400s. This document lists a family with the surname IANDOLI residing in the area.

During the Renaissance period, a notable figure bearing the IANDOLI name was Antonio IANDOLI (1455-1521), a scholar and philosopher from Naples. He was known for his works on ethics and logic, and his contributions to the intellectual discourse of the time.

In the 17th century, a wealthy merchant named Giacomo IANDOLI (1632-1701) is recorded as having lived in the city of Bari, in the Puglia region. He was involved in the trade of almonds and other agricultural goods, which further reinforces the occupational origins of the surname.

Another historically significant individual with the IANDOLI name was Maria IANDOLI (1790-1865), a philanthropist and activist from Naples. She dedicated her life to advocating for women's rights and education, and founded several schools for underprivileged children in the region.

During the 19th century, the IANDOLI surname can be found in various records from towns and villages across Southern Italy, particularly in the provinces of Salerno, Avellino, and Bari, indicating the widespread distribution of the name throughout these areas.

One of the most prominent figures in more recent history was Ernesto IANDOLI (1892-1962), an Italian politician and journalist. He served as a member of the Italian Parliament and was known for his influential writings on social and economic issues.
