Summary (English)
In 2006 the excavation area was extended in the zone linking the previously opened trenches (Trench SP) and in the north-east zone of the previous trenches themselves (Trench F). Three new trenches were opened (Trench M, Trench east corners, Trench west side) which made it possible to check:
- the nature of interventions following the abandonment-demolition of the Roman building, all relative to late antique, early and late medieval occupation (a settlement with a small craft industry). These activities were concentrated in the north and central areas of the field, in the quadrant delimited by Trenches P and SP to the north, to the east by Trench S, to the west by the edge of the property, whilst to the south they did not seem to be present in the eastern sector. Here the Roman buildings were robbed; – the preservation at foundation level of the Roman structures of the central building, constituted by a portico its north side having niches, the south side constituted by what was probably an enclosing portico, ending to the south with an exedra with a central tower and with a large garden with structural elements (fountains?, flowerbeds?, pathways?).
