DA TARANTO A SIBARI TRA VIII E VII SECOLO A.C. PAESAGGI INSEDIATIVI E DINAMICHE SOCIALI

Abstract

From Taras to Sybaris between the 8th and 7th centuries BC. Settlement landscapes and
social dynamics
The paper aims to address the topic of the outcomes of Greek migrations on the coast
of the Gulf of Taranto in terms of settlement patterns and socio-cultural dynamics. The
work will attempt to focus on characters, timing and degree of impact of the transformations
that took place in the different sites located in three territories of the Ionian coast,
the Tarantine countryside, the Siritide and Sibaritide, at the time in which the first Greek
colonial settlements were to take place.
