摘要：The mansio of Hasta, mentioned in the Tabula Peutingeriana, was built along the via Aurelia vetus at Alberese, in the southern part of the ager Rusellanus (GR, Tuscany, Italy). Some oblique aerial photographs made it possible to recon-struct the plan of the site occupying an area of about 3 ha. The mansio was built at the end of 1st – the early 2nd AD by the impe-rial estates. The res Caesaris, which had acquired the ager Cosanus and the islands of Giglio and Giannutri in the Grossetan Maremma, had invested in the ager Rusellanus and promoted in the Alberese a certain amount of devel-opment documented by the restructuring of the sanctuary complex of Diana Umbronensis, by the construction of the manufacturing district of Spolverino at the last bend of the Ombrone river and perhaps with the construction of the man-sio of Umbro flumen at the mouth of the Ombrone.Like many other mansiones of the Italian peninsula, Hasta was abandoned in the late 5th century AD. A new occupation is documented in the early Middle Ages when the Astiano cur-tis, whose name recalls that of the Roman mansio, is documented from written sources.
