Abstract
The project represents the natural continuation of a research, which this team has carried out for many years and that has given significant results so far, as it comes out in particular of the Seminars on the Late Antiquity-Early Middle Ages in the Southern Italy; (STAIM 1, 2004, on the rural landscapes and settlements, and 2, 2006, on the urban landscapes and settlements). After the analysis of the settling forms, of the productive structures and of the relevant aspects of the agrarian economy and breeding, researchers - believing that reliable results can only derive from systematic researches in a long period - aim at analysing the social structure of the urban and rural communities in the late antique SE Italy. This will be possible also thanks to the considerable acquired data and to the consolidate cooperation among the UOLs. According to a successful model, the project is characterised by its multi-disciplinary component with the profitable integration of sources, approaches, methodologies and techniques, all from an archaeological, historical, epigraphical and juridical context, and from an archaeo-metrical, geophysical and bio-archaeological one.
The project also intends to contribute to the determination of new research contexts and new analysis and interpretation paths to study the social organisation, analysing not only the manufactures and the space hierarchical organisation, but also the ideal and material symbols, the eating habits, the funerary >>>

Research Objectives
The project main objective is the drawing-up, through a plurality of sources and approaches, of an overall picture of the social structure and of the life conditions in some territories of the South-eastern Italy (Apulia and north-eastern Lucania).
In general the project intends to contribute to the determination of new contexts and new analysis and interpretation paths in order to study the social organisation starting not only from the manufactures and from the different types of spaces, in particular the “landscapes” and the “places of power”, but also from the different symbols, the ideal and material ones.
Some objectives can be specifically pointed out:
• to carry out the analysis of the relations among institutions and the settling and economic structures, evaluating the institutional aspect impacts on the productive organisation of the examined territory through the effect of the Italian provicialisation.
• to evaluate the Christianization impact on the reorganization of the urban and rural spaces (diocese constitution; rural diocese presence; worship building localization and their influence on the space reorganization) and to study the bishop’s character, his functions in the organisation of the urban and rural life and the agricultural, zoo-technical and artisan productive activities. To analyse in particular the transformations of the late antique town starting from the emblematic case of Canosa and to study in depth the bishop’s role >>>

National and international background
The research program derives, as already said in the objective description part, from previous investigations carried out by several members of this proposing team, which has worked on close subjects strictly related to the one here presented: Elites and subordinate classes in the Late Antique South - stratifications and social dynamics, material conditions and productive orders, urban and rural areas in Apulia and Lucania. This subject then is originated from the well acquired and acknowledged results of the previous co-operations and team works which now impose an extension of the research range of action. The previous researches allowed to define the Late Antiquity in Apulia and Lucania as an age of extreme settling liveliness, both in the urban and rural contexts: the studies on the ancient landscapes, on the residential and productive building typologies, on the population in these territories between the 4th and the 8th centuries have exceeded the traditional interpretation of a settling decline in this period (Vera 1995; Volpe 1996, Small 1998; on the study evolution about Late Antiquity see Giardina 1999; Marcone 2001).
It is high time to explore the social consequences of this economic liveliness and settling development in the urban and rural social classes in Southern Italy. This need involves both the upper classes - with the specific need to try to interpret their repositioning after the provincial order reorganisation during the Diocletian Age - and the >>>
