Material culture between town and country: long-term trends in southern Apulia in the Middle Ages This paper examines trends in the development of material cultural used in the Salento. It is based on quantitative and qualitative data, available for some categories of objects between Late Antiquity and the end of the Middle Ages, shedding light on significant developments. Through the analysis of well-stratified archaeological assemblages, it examines the relationship be-tween imports and local products, the long-term dynamics of artefact production and consumption in both rural and urban con-texts, and the permeability of local patterns of manufacture and use to foreign influence. With the intention of examining forms of exchange, coin finds from the Salento are briefly examined, permitting some preliminary observations through the quantitative analysis of the data.

Abstract
Material culture between town and country: long-term trends in southern Apulia in the Middle Ages This paper examines trends in the development of material cultural used in the Salento. It is based on quantitative and qualitative data, available for some categories of objects between Late Antiquity and the end of the Middle Ages, shedding light on significant developments. Through the analysis of well-stratified archaeological assemblages, it examines the relationship be-tween imports and local products, the long-term dynamics of artefact production and consumption in both rural and urban con-texts, and the permeability of local patterns of manufacture and use to foreign influence. With the intention of examining forms of exchange, coin finds from the Salento are briefly examined, permitting some preliminary observations through the quantitative analysis of the data.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
