CANOSA DI PUGLIA: What a wonderful couple of days I spent last week in Canosa [despite the rather warm weather]. I visited the excavations and the new venue of the Museo Archeologico Nazionale di Canosa [not yet open to the public], engaged in discussions with local archaeologists and art historians from the Fondazione Archeologica Canosina [ https://www.canusium.it ], and gathered excellent material for my forthcoming article in ANTIQVVS Magazine. The article will focus on one of the distinctive aspects of the pre-Roman heritage of Canosa.

I would like to express my sincere gratitude for the warm hospitality and the superb organisation of the visit, which included access to unique and often overlooked historical sites as well as ongoing excavations. My thanks go both to the Fondazione Archeologica Canosina as an institution, and to its individual founders, representatives and specialists:
