The fifth excavation campaign took place in May-June 2011. Trench VII was enlarged by 100 m2 and the ditch fill was excavated.
The following sequence emerged:

- Surface layer (US 1a) this was a fill post-dating the abandonment of the ditch, which produced middle Neolithic material, probably washed down from the centre of the settlement. Pottery painted with red bands was found in these typical forms: hemispherical and globular bowls, carenated bowls and vases with necks. The finds were concentrated in a restricted strip corresponding with the outer edge of the ditch, where the slope of the deposit was steeper; – Surface layer (US 1b) deposit containing impasto pottery with impressed, thin-lined graffito and painted narrow banded decoration of the Lagnano da Piede type; – Intermediate layers of loose sediment (US 7-US 8) contained small amounts of pottery. Plain ware pottery was absent from the lowest layer (US 8); – Concretionary intermediate layers (US 2-US 3-US 4) concretionary deposits which had incorporated a small amount of archaeological material; – Lower layers (US 6 and US 5) this layer contained a large quantity of archaeological material, in particular impasto pottery with impressed decoration, and concentrations of baked clay. Its excavation is to be completed.

Trench VII, in the northern part of the village produced the following sequence :

- The initial phase dating to the early Neolithic was attested by impasto pottery with impressed, graffito and painted decoration. The village was probably built during a late phase of the Impressed Pottery Culture, correlated to a subsequent moment of the Trasano phase III and contemporary with the Tirlecchia phase II; – The later phase dating to the middle Neolithic period was attested by plain ware pottery with red-painted bands, which probably came from the internal area of the settlement, where no archaeological evidence was preserved due to substantial hill-wash. At present, there is no evidence for subsequent occupation dating to the Serra d’Alto culture.
Lastly, the absence of Bronze Age pottery in the ditch should be noted. Occupation of this date was however well-attested in the eastern sector, where in previous campaigns (trenches III and IV) materials and huts dating to the middle Bronze Age were uncovered.
