摘要：In the context of the Senigallia Urban Archaeological Project, started in 2010, two important operations of preventive archaeology were carried out at the end of 2011. In both cases the archaeological excavation was preceded by a georadar survey of the area under investigation. The first intervention pertains to an area located in via Baroccio, which revealed a situation of extraordinary importance. In fact, the exploration discovered a sacred complex probably founded by the first Roman colonists at the beginning of the III century B.C., and the remains of the Roman city walls. Initially, the sanctuary was open air and extra moenia with rituals organized around votive stones. In a second phase two sacella were created, at the same time of the construction of the city wall, which made the sanctuary urban. The second excavation took place in via Gherardi and revealed some republican Roman structures, which indicated the extension of the roman colony of Sena Gallica. But the most important finding is a building founded directly over the Roman structures, dated to around the XIIIth century A.D. This case show the continuous using of the Roman levels also in the early Middle Age, up to the great constructive activities of Sigismondo Malatesta (1448-1456).
