From this point, a magnificent view opens up of Becca Salé, Monte Emilius, and Becca Nona, which stand side by side, from left to right. The toponymy, with its ancient roots, is also striking: becca in Aosta Valley dialect simply means summit, while Salé derives from the French salée (“salty”) or, according to local interpretations, from the light, arid color of the summit rocks. Monte Emilius likely recalls the gens Aemilia, a Roman family with possessions on the lower slopes of the mountain in Roman times. Finally, Becca Nona refers to the canonical ninth hour (around 3:00 PM): observed from Aosta, the summit traditionally indicates the position of the sun at that hour, serving as a veritable natural clock for the inhabitants of the valley floor.

Blessed Emeric of Quart was a 12th-century Aosta Valley nobleman who chose a life of renunciation and prayer, retreating as a hermit in the woods above the present-day village of Quart. According to tradition, he lived in extreme poverty in a cave or natural shelter on the very site where the Oratory dedicated to him now stands. He was known among the population for his austerity and for the help he offered to travelers and local farmers. After his death around 1140, his retreat became a place of popular devotion, giving rise to the small oratory that preserves his memory.
