Description
actuellement disponible uniquement en langue anglaise
The pile-dwelling settlement at San Sivino, also known as ‘del Gabbiano’, is currently submerged by the waters of Lake Garda and lies near the shore in the municipality of Manerba del Garda (province of Brescia). Originally, the piledwelling extended for about 150 meters along the shores of the lake. The discovery of the settlement was made in 1971by the diving club Tritone Sub Club of Desenzano. Based on the dendrochronological analysis conducted on the posts, all made from deciduous oak, two construction periods have been identified, with trees being felled at least 33 years apart.
