Abstract
In Late-Antiquity several cities became small villages and then disappeared in Italy. As for the Regio Octava, this situation is evident if we compare Pliny’s list of the cities in Aemilia (first century AD) with that of the early-medieval dioceses: 12/24 cities disappeared. Tannetum is one of those centres and the “Tannetum archaeological project’ (Sapienza Università di Roma in collaboration with Syddansk Universitet of Odense) aim is the historical reconstruction of the evolution of Enza River district, Po Valley (RE, Italy). In 2017 a defensive structure was excavated in a place named “Castellazzo”. This area had been surveyed in the Fifties, but these excavations failed to solve the historical enigma of what this fortress was or how old may it be. The 2017 survey revealed some new fundamental clues fot the datation of the structure and new data about the building tecnique and constructive phases. This seems to be one of the oldest castles in the area: a c14 analysis date it at the IX Century. This study addresses the origin of this building to the policy uncertainty of Italy in that period more than to the “barbarian invasions” that took place only some decades later.
