Comment on The medieval ’southern Italian’ collections of the British Museum by Ralph Damato

One item of interest I don’t think the bust is of a woman but a man. Typical a Lombard as the style of hair parted in middle and down to mouth level…while shaved on the back of the head.

I am quite interested on this subject as I my family is from Senise. In our town there is a Castle dating to 1200 and while it is not been attributed to Norman construction it was occupied by them during the Crusades and shortly after. As far as the Lombards it is common knowlege that they migrated down from the North and into our region in the south. Many chieftans were probably establishing themselves and assimilating into the local populus. I believe that the local populus of Greek origin of the Coni and or Oniffi tribes and todays dialect Senisie still has remnants of Greek. I am not a langauge expert but theorize it. It’s also known that the Lombards did have ties to Byzantium and you can also appreciate that influence in the region as well.

A site about Norman areas of Europe, including a section on the Normans in Italy. It’s basic, but a good starting point.
