Description
After a preliminary examination of the epigraphic material of Calabria, it is evident that the richest and most interesting one – regarding to our research topic – is been found in Locri Epizefiri: it is significant both for the lucky discovery of the bronze tables and for the more deep relationship that, for its origins, can be established with the two Locrides of Greece. Lavinio Del Monaco, already author of important historical, philological and metrological studies on the Tables of Locri, will re-examine all the epigraphic material of Locri, in the prospective indicated in the title of the project: identify all the possible connections in order to place this center in a common institutional and cultural prospective.
Lucia D’Amore, author of the very recent edition of the inscriptions of Rhegion, will study deeper the theme of instrumentum, in order to get, as far as possible, economical data on the organization of the workshops and the mobility of the artisans. This theme of the mobility will be analyzed by Michela Nocita too, who will focus especially on the movements of people from the Magna Grecia to the poleis of the Corinthian Gulf and the Ionic islands. In the same time, Lia Gentile will follow this phenomenon regarding to people that come from Sicily. Paola Grandinetti will trace an outline on the position of the woman in Magna Grecia, in confront with the situation of the “Third Greece”. Finally, Maria Letizia Lazzarini will study the epigraphic material offered by the colonies of Locri, but also by Kroton, Sybaris and their subcolonies, in order to analyze possible contacts at an institutional and cultural level with the regions of the western shore of the Corinthian Gulf. In this way, she will be able to observe if there are important elements that link also these two Achaean cities to the already examined cultural koinè.
