The need for this research stems from the almost total absence of studies on the Baudekoration of the Roman age in the Bruttium area. Of the material, largely fragmentary,
information was recovered, where possible, relating to the contexts of discovery, in the hope of being able to bring back, at least a part, to stratigraphies to which to link for a more precise definition of the chronologies. A catalog is proposed
of the pieces, followed by a typological study and a stylistic analysis of the architectural elements, from which it was
possible to develop a series of reflections, some of which are functional to a proposal for reconstruction and relocation
of the pieces. The study shows how the use of marble in Copia/Thurii, as well as being part of a broader urban reorganization
and witnessing a period of a certain prosperity crossed by the municipium, is likely to be related to local
phenomena of euergetism, perhaps aimed at the adherence of the ruling class to urban models proposed by the imperial
ideology.

We will try to reconstruct the story of the collection and the essentials questions about the identification of the ancients engravers.

I, 1), Dionysos (Tav. I, 2), Poseidon (Tav. I, 3), Amphitrite o alle Nereidi (Tav. I, 4). Una interpretazione corretta del signifi cato del tipo e delle intenzioni alla base della sua adozione, non può prescindere dalle acquisizioni e dal metodo elaborato dai realizzatori del Lexicon Iconographicum Numismaticae, per i quali entrambi i tipi impressi sulle facce di una moneta avrebbero espresso un messaggio seguendo un linguaggio e un lessico iconografi co soggetti a regole ben precise, 2 tra cui la stretta relazione semantica e complementarietà tra tipo principale e simbolo e tra i tipi di D/ e di R/.
