Il Segni Project. Risultati della terza campagna di ricerche

Lazio e Sabina X, 2014

2012 was the first year of the Segni Project, part of a 3-year joint research project between the British School at Rome and the Comune di Segni, with the support of the Soprintendenza per i Beni Archeologici del Lazio. Fieldwork began with an initial geophysical survey, which yielded significant results. This provided precise guidelines for the subsequent excavations, which have returned a wealth of information about the history of the city from the late Bronze Age to the Medieval period (especially at the sites of Prato Felici and Piazza Santa Maria).

2014

In the summer of 2017 and 2018, the archaeological excavation in the Horrea Agrippiana planned by the Signum Vortumni project continued. The findings emerging from the new excavations allowed us to better understand the stratigraphic sequence already identified in the 2016 campaign. The late Republican domus, with walls in opus incertum masonry, has returned traces of the floors, II style wall decorations and some furnishings. It is confirmed as a high-level aristocratic domus, developed along the terraces of the western slopes of the Palatine. A significant new discovery concerns the construction phase of the Horrea Agrippiana. In the 2016 campaign, the remains of a structure interpretable as a warehouse had been found. It is characterized, at least on the northern side, by a series of parallel chambers, 4 meters wide, open to the south, finished in travertine block endpieces opening onto an area that was probably open-air. The new stratigraphic data could indicate that it is not an older phase of the Horrea, but its first project phase. This would have been interrupted by a fire (12 BC?) and then replaced by the new Horrea Agrippiana project in opus quadratum, still visible on the site. Regarding the construction of the Horrea, the pottery from the new layers confirm the dating to the Augustan period. Finally, much interesting new evidence concerns the Late Antique phases of the warehouse. Some contexts testify to productive activities dating to the 5th-6th century AD, while a group of new burials, probably from the 7th century AD, seem to be connected to the life of the nearby diaconia of San Teodoro.
