Il piccolo ripostiglio di monete enee; La frazione di siliqua di Baduila; L’anello con medaglietta devozionale

Several archaeological campaigns were performed between 1987 and 1995 in the Schieppo hamlet of Ponte Lambro. The investigations identified the remains of the pars rustica/fructiaria of a Roman villa, firstly built and inhabited between 1st and mid-3rd century AD. The complex is laid out lengthwise, and includes buildings and facilities for storing and processing agricultural products: a granary, a drying kiln, a calcatorium and a probable winery. The site was firstly abandoned by the second half of the 3rd century. In late antiquity, people settled again in the site and carried out a major reorganization. The villa was still occupied during the 6th century. The essay presents a small hoard of 29 pre-gallienc bronze coins that was hidden between the pilae of the drying kiln; a new fraction of siliqua of Baduila and a finger ring with a devotional medal of saint Giovanni Emiliani.
