The paper debates human-environment relationships in the Plain of Sybaris, during pre- and protohistory, up to the transformations in settlement and landscape management of the archaic and classical age, following the foundation of Sybaris. Data coming from geomorphological research, deep cores and surveys are analyzed. It seems that a phase of high human-driven impact, ensuing from Neolithization, was replaced, during protohistory, by landscape management systems more suitable for slope stability an conservation; the colonial phase marks a further improvement.
Viene affrontato il problema del rapporto uomo-ambiente nella Sibaritide durante la preistoria e la protostoria, fino alle trasformazioni insediative e di gestione del paesaggio dell'età arcaica e classica, conseguenti alla fondazione di Sibari. L'analisi dei dati, provenienti da ricerche geomorfologiche, carotaggi e ricognizioni territoriali, suggerisce che a una fase di elevato impatto antropico, conseguente alla Neolitizzazione, abbiano fatto seguito, durante la protostoria e infine in fase coloniale, sistemi di gestione territoriale più compatibili con la stabilità ambientale.

Abstract
The paper debates human-environment relationships in the Plain of Sybaris, during pre- and protohistory, up to the transformations in settlement and landscape management of the archaic and classical age, following the foundation of Sybaris. Data coming from geomorphological research, deep cores and surveys are analyzed. It seems that a phase of high human-driven impact, ensuing from Neolithization, was replaced, during protohistory, by landscape management systems more suitable for slope stability an conservation; the colonial phase marks a further improvement.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
