From the annotations:
Abury: Avebury, a name of a village in Wiltshire and site of Neolithic henge. Sometimes called Abury, as by antiquarian William Stukeley (1687-1765) in his "Abury: A Temple of the British Druids" (1743).
mano in fica: "fig hand" - a sign used to avert the evil eye. [Although note that fig in Italian is actually 'fico', and 'fica' is rather a crude and rude term... Although I can't say what the case was a hundred+ years ago]
