Abstract

Excavations at the site of Torre di Parenzo (Poreč), through recording and stratigraphic analysis of the walls, together with field survey of the corresponding territory, has enabled suggesting a local model for the development of the settlement with a transition from a villa to a castrum during the 5th-6th centuries, along with the evolution of one variant of a Roman rustic structure with an atrium system to a fortified medieval nucleus, morphologically related to the new rural inhabitants.
