Priscilla Munzi et al., « Archeologia della morte in Daunia: nuovi dati dalle necropoli di Arpi tra topografia, tipologia e pratiche funerarie », HAL-SHS : archéologie, ID : 10670/1.gswqwu
The Daunian site of Arpi is located in the alluvial plain of Tavoliere in Apulia. The first testimonies of an occupation date from the Iron Age, but the agglomeration starts to grow in importance especially from the IVth century BC onwards. The site is delimited by an agger that covers 1000 ha; it protects a space welcoming not only the habitat, but also necropolises and lands devoted to agriculture and pasture. All the data provided by the topography of tombs, their typology, their items, their chronology and the anthropology fulfil our knowledge on the urban and social transformations that happen in one of the greater Daunian cities between the VIth century BC and the IInd century AD.
