The Roman Section Following the Lex Flaminia de agro Gallico et Piceno viritim dividundo and the opening in 220 B.C. of the consular Flaminiian Road, the territory of Cantiano was probably involved in the allocation of Roman share-croppers to the scattered farms. During the Imperial age, this territory, part of the VI region, was within the confines of the municipal limits of Iguvium (south-west), of Pitinum Mergens (north-east) and of Sentinum (south-east). The type of housing settlement in this era was made up of farms, at times quite large, with simple living areas, earthen floors or floors of broken shards of terracotta, separated one from the other by a specifically agricultural area. At least, this is what can be culled from the type of artefacts conserved in the Museum. Building elements
