Questo articolo presenta le ricerche condotte nel territorio di Brentonico (TN) che hanno documentato un periodo di stabilità intercorso tra la metà del XIX secolo e la metà del XX secolo, e una successiva tendenza alla riduzione dei pascoli in favore dell’avanzamento del bosco. Questo fenomeno può essere letto come il segno di cambiamenti sociali in atto, e di nuovi interessi economici evidentemente diversi da quelli passati.

This makes it a pivotal juncture, not just between these two maritime zones, but also linking with the opposing coastline of Illyria and Epirus. Throughout history, this strategic location has consistently guaranteed the integration of the Salento peninsula within a network of trade and interactions. Recent research, specifically centred on its connectivity, has substantiated this fact. Utilizing techniques and methodologies derived from Social Network Analysis, these studies have traced this phenomenon from the protohistoric era to the Middle Ages. For the analysis proposed here, the first fundamental step involved the utilizations of GIS software for the systematic organization and geographic positioning of relevant sites and data. Subsequently, the GIS resources were harnessed, coupled with software tools like GEPHY and UCINET. These tools facilitated the creation of visual representations, encompassing graphs and infographics, elucidating the research objectives and enabling the discernment of network node centralities. The diachronic analysis presented here, from the Hellenistic to the Byzantine period, highlights precisely the strong link between the Salento and the Ionian area, especially in the east (Albania and Greece) but also in the west (Calabria and Sicily), as well as the definition of routes and paths along which objects, people and ideas travelled.
