This campaign constituted the renewal of the annual excavations undertaken by Turin University, which began in 1969 and were suspended in 2002. The aim was to acquire new data regarding the organisation and diachronic development of the occupation in the centre of the town.

The research concentrated on the area east of Casino Macrì, where exploration continued in a zone previously looked at in 2002. A series of trenches were put in immediately east of the previous intervention. The new trenches revealed an articulated and complex stratigraphic sequence, running from the 7th century B.C. to the late antique period.

It was seen that from its origins the area was characterised by the presence of a torrent descending from the highland behind the site and which must have been over 20 m wide. During the course of the 6th century B.C. the water flow was regulated through the construction of a mountain-sea channel, completely restructured in the 4th century. The correspondence between the alignments seemed to indicate that the original structure was associated with the reorganisation of the urban space which led to the development of the urban layout per strigas.

At the beginning of the 3rd century B.C. the entire system underwent a radical transformation which led to the creation of a road on top of the river sediments.

The evidence for the occupation of this zone between the 1st century B.C. and the 1st century A.D. was scarce, as has been documented for the entire area surrounding Casino Macrì. Only in the 2nd century A.D., with the opening of a building site for the nearby bath complex, was there a renewal of construction, which became particularly intense during the 4th century A.D. During this period new surfaces were put down on the earlier road. A number of rooms from houses facing onto the north side of the road were in phase with the new surfaces.

The area was definitively abandoned between the 5th and 6th century A.D.
