Lo scavo a Parma sotto Palazzo Sanvitale

Overview

Palazzo Sanvitale is located in Parma on the left bank of a stream, on the edge of the northeastern quadrant of the urban layout. The palace and garden fill two blocks, separated almost entirely by a minor decumanus. Ceramic and clay scraps from an underlying pit date the laying out of the decumanus towards the end of the 3rd century BC. In the south block, residential buildings recall the housing scenarios of the eastern Cispadana. To the east, a mixtilinear building dates to the 4th century AD. In the other block, superimposed on a primitive housing phase, the remains of a bathhouse dating to the second half of the 2nd century AD are outlined. During the Theoderican age, residential buildings, one of which seals the remains of a mill, filled both blocks. At the rear, in the area of the palace main courtyard, a lime kiln was erected. The extreme edge of a Lombard cemetery enters the excavation area from the north, overlapped by another cemetery, where the burial of an infant appears to be associated with a mensa. Earth embankments, reinforced by wooden poles and branches, contain the new riverbed. The study ends with the medieval levels dominated by the San Martino degli Zoppellari hospice. It is accompanied by essays on the materials from the excavations. The daily lives of the inhabitants are illustrated by means of the cookery vessels and tableware. Lastly, a detailed catalogue of the coins is presented, the cash lost by successive visitors to the area.
