The paper deals with the possible agricultural assignings of ager Grumentinus during the Roman Age. Grumentum is a Roman-Lucan town, placed in Agri valley, in the centre of Basilicata.

Abstract
The paper deals with the possible agricultural assignings of ager Grumentinus during the Roman Age. Grumentum is a Roman-Lucan town, placed in Agri valley, in the centre of Basilicata. According to Gromatici Veteres’ text (in particular Liber Coloniarum), centurial persistences on cartography and on aerial photos, and archeological data (Roman farms and settlements in the valley), I suggest a possible Gracchan centuriation with two centurial plans differently orientated because tightly connected to physical geography and geomorphology of the studied area.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
