Aragona (Sicilian: Araùna or Raona) is a commune in the province of Agrigento, Sicily, southern Italy.

[4] The town was founded on 6 January 1606, upon the initiative of lord Baldassare III Naselli, Count of Comiso.

He had previously submitted a request for the foundation of a new village in his fiefdom of Diesi during the 49th Extraordinary General Parliament, overseen by the Spanish viceroy Lorenzo Suarez de Figueroa e Cordoba on 2 August 1604, in Messina.

On 6 September that year the viceroy ordered an official investigation into the matter, which eventually resulted on 6 January 1606 in the granting of a licentia populandi, i.e. the permission to increase the fief's population.

Another typical dish of the local cuisine is the 'mbriulata, which consists of very thin bread dough filled with olives, caramelized onions, crumbled sausage, oil, salt and pepper.
