Overview
"La conoscenza archeologica della Calabria nel Medioevo è ancora poco approfondita rispetto al resto dell'Italia meridionale, e questo rende difficile giudicare il ruolo che questa regione ha assunto nella crescita del nuovo Mediterraneo medievale dopo la disgregazione del mondo antico. L'area denominata ""Altopiano del Poro"", nell'odierna provincia di Vibo Valentia, è al centro di questo studio. Questo libro presenta una serie di dati raccolti per ricostruire le caratteristiche di questo territorio in fasi storiche omogenee. Lo studio definisce le tipologie degli insediamenti, le reti di siti esistenti al suo interno, le loro relazioni ed evoluzioni nel corso dei secoli. È accompagnato da uno studio campionato di materiale ceramico importato e locale. The archaeological knowledge of Calabria in the Middle Ages is still not very thorough compared to the rest of the Southern Italy, and this makes it difficult to judge the role that this region assumed in the growth of the new medieval Mediterranean after the shattering of the ancient world. The area called ""Hilltop of Poro"", in the modern province of Vibo Valentia, is the focus of this study. This book presents a series of data collected to reconstruct the features that characterized this territory in homogeneous historical phases. The study defines the types of settlements, the networks of sites existing within it, and their relationships and evolutions over the centuries. It is accompanied by a sampled study of imported and local ceramic material. "

Reviews
'This will be THE book on ancient and medieval Calabria - a remarkable if little known region. It assembles a treasure trove of Calabrian material in one place.' Dr Richard Hodges, The American University of Rome 'The proposed book, with unpublished data and the re-elaboration and rearrangement of already known data, will give a great contribution to the knowledge of the Calabrian medieval archeology, allowing wider synthesis and comparison works that can also affect other areas of the Southern Italy and the Mediterranean in general.' Giuseppe Clemente, PHD at Universita di Sassari
