Abstract

Abstract The Fortore Valley Project, which began in 2005 and is still ongoing, aims to create an archaeological map of the Fortore Valley. Several intensive and extensive survey campaigns were carried out in the territory of the middle valley. More than 100 km2 have been surveyed and more than 300 sites identified. This contribution analyzes the collected data and proposes a model of population evolution based on a GIS spatial analysis and a preliminary study of the finds. The artifacts found between 2005 and 2006 in the territory of Occhito Lake (Macchia Valfortore) provide a case study for understanding settlement patterns in the Fortore Valley.
