Summary:

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.
