Abstract

The present study deals with the history of studies and the archaeological evidence currently known of the facies of Rodì Tindari Vallelunga (RTV) , analyzying the peculiarities of settlements, burials and ceramics compared with the contemporary cultures of Castelluccio and Capo Graziano. It follows a proposal for the classification of RTV pottery production, based on the evidence from Mursia (Pantelleria) and from others sites attributed to this facies. Finally hypotheses on the origin, spread and chronology of the RTV facies are proposed.
