Agro-pastoral civilization and culture

Agro-pastoral civilization and culture

There are ties that cross time, that define eras and represent civilizations. Bonds that man has transformed into the action of returning, and sometimes of staying, in the places that had already been inhabited before and were chosen again to rebuild communal spaces. In the temporal sequences that identify the city built on the tratturo (sheep track), the link established with the land and with the resources it secured becomes apparent through the economic systems adopted by the different peoples who have inhabited Saepinum. Over the centuries, following agricultural, pastoral and mercantile practices, people have reached, stopped, and traveled the trade routes, halting their lives in this territory, bringing their own cultural experiences and the identity values that they possessed. Walking along the road network we discover Saepinum and its unique and enchanting historical context, which preserves the overlapping signs left by agro-pastoral civilizations and shows the multiple expressions of an inherited story of which we are still a part.
