Microstorie di romanizzazione
Edition and commentary of 60 funerary inscriptions found at the site of Cerrione in the province of Biella (northeastern Piedmont, Italy), in the territory once belonging to the Roman colony of Eporedia. Seven inscriptions were found written in the so-called Lepontic dialect; 53 in the Latin alphabet. Not only does this work offer a socio-cultural investigation of the individuals who lived in this settlement and made use of its cemetery, but, reconstructing a number of micro-histories, it also contributes to understanding the dynamics of the contacts between the indigenous Celtic element and the exogenous Roman influence.
