and was chosen as a pilot-excavation to better understand the dynamics of this type of settlements in
Romagna, since our first dig-season in 2007. The surveys showed the main features of this settlement
and showed the close relationship between the rural population and Gypsum bedrock from the earliest
phase of its occupation. Mt. Rontana’s Gypsum (Messinian Gypsum outcrop of the Vena del Gesso
romagnola, Northern Italy) was used by the community of the castle to fortify the settlement, to live
there and to bury their loved ones. All these activities are the center of the story we are about to tell, a
story written especially starting from material sources, the foundation of any archaeological research.
