Roman and Lucanian Grumentum (Potenza province, southern Italy)
represents a good archaeological case-study of a site over which no
modern city has been built. It was abandoned at the end of the 11th
century AD and used as a cultivation area for centuries. The sites
provide a highly interesting sequence of data, concerning the first
human settlements, the Enotrian and Lucanian phases, the founding
of the first city (3rd century BC), the Romanization and the
founding of the Roman colony around 50 BC. This book presents the
proceedings of a conference on the sites, held in Grumento Nova
itself in April 2010. The range of topics is large, from
stratigraphical excavations to history, from epigraphy to
archaeometry. The chronological range is also wide, from prehistory
to modern age. 16 papers in Italian, 5 in English."
