According to the first century BCE historian Diodoros Siculus, the Sicilian town of Morgantina was captured by the Sikel leader Douketios in 459 BCE (XI.78.5). This is the earliest dated event in Morgantina's history. Archaeological work on the site of Morgantina, near the modern town of Aidone, has revealed that the Cittadella hill was inhabited in the period described by Diodoros, but that town was soon abandoned. A new settlement, also called Morgantina, according to historical sources, was founded on the neighboring ridge of Serra Orlando some time before the end of the fifth century. This dissertation examines the earliest evidence from the Serra Orlando settlement in order to understand better how, when, and by whom the new foundation was made.

520 $a According to the first century BCE historian Diodoros Siculus, the Sicilian town of Morgantina was captured by the Sikel leader Douketios in 459 BCE (XI.78.5). This is the earliest dated event in Morgantina's history. Archaeological work on the site of Morgantina, near the modern town of Aidone, has revealed that the Cittadella hill was inhabited in the period described by Diodoros, but that town was soon abandoned. A new settlement, also called Morgantina, according to historical sources, was founded on the neighboring ridge of Serra Orlando some time before the end of the fifth century. This dissertation examines the earliest evidence from the Serra Orlando settlement in order to understand better how, when, and by whom the new foundation was made.
520 $a The early material from Serra Orlando is almost exclusively domestic in nature, and it includes a large quantity of imported pottery. It therefore raises questions about the ways in which people conducted their daily lives---especially how they dined and drank, since pottery forms the bulk of the available evidence as---well as about the contacts the inhabitants of Morgantina had with coastal Sicily and the wider Mediterranean world. The Athenian black gloss pottery, in particular, is a good point of comparison between Morgantina, other sites in the Sicilian interior, Greek colonies on the coast, and Athens itself.
520 $a The evidence from early deposits at Serra Orlando reveals a wealth of new information about the second Morgantina. This information includes signs that the town may have been settled by a mixed population of Greeks and Sikels, and that those who lived in the town did so on a relatively equal basis (both as groups and as individuals). Finally, it indicates that the new settlers were willing to select objects, and perhaps even behaviors, from different cultures, integrating them to create their own hybrid culture.
