The Etruscan character of the city of Pisa has been questioned for
a long time. However, thanks to a thriving period of archaeological
investigations undertaken in the mid-1980s, it was possible to
definitively confirm the ancient Etruscan origin of the settlement.
One of the main excavations was carried out between 1985 and 1988 a
few steps away from the Leaning Tower (saggio D), where a complex
and uninterrupted stratigraphy dating from the middle of the 6th
century BC and the end of the 5th century AD was brought to light.
The anthropic installations and wall structures unearthed share the
same alignments and the same orientation, within an apparently
orthogonal urban network designed at least from the end of the 5th
century BC and knowingly respected until the end of the Roman
imperial age. Uno sguardo su Pisa ellenistica da piazza del Duomo,
dedicated to the Hellenistic period documented in the excavation of
saggio D, presents a substantial catalogue of the ceramic
repertoire therein recovered, most of which are still not attested
in the city. Due to the results of this work, it is now possible to
redefine the role of Pisa in this period as one of the major trade
centres of northern coastal Etruria.
