Abstract

The physiognomy of preroman Altino remarkably changed in the last twenty years. The archaeological excavations of the sanctuary of the god Altino allowed to post-date to the origin of the city to the end of Bronze Age, between the XIth and Xth century B.C. The typologic study of what has been found, particularly bronze and pottery objects discovered in many countries, confirm that many preroman items exposed in the Torcello Museum come from Altino. The present paper also takes into consideration a group of roman monuments probably coming from Altino, as can be argued by archive documents or stylistic comparisons.
