secondo le quali l’amministrazione del princeps gestisce, fin dall’età augustea, i metalla di propria pertinenza.

La struttura, adibita a laconicum, risulta realizzata nel corso della seconda metà del II sec. d. C. e viene abbandonata tra la fine del III e l'inizio del IV sec. d. C.

Donati nel 2012 sulla villa romana di San Vincenzino (Cecina, LI), presentando in particolare le indagini del quartiere dell'atrio del complesso residenziale.

alcune riflessioni sulle fasi tardo-antiche (IV- prima metà del VII secolo) del porto e del contesto territoriale
nel quale era ubicato.

L'impianto, che inizia la propria attività nella seconda metà del I sec. a. C., rimane attivo fino ai decenni centrali del II sec. d. C., quando l'area risulta riorganizzata in una villa di carattere unicamente residenziale.

trade building, where commercial activities started at the middle of the 1st century B. C. going on until the 6th cent. AD.
The amount of african, lusitanian (especially Almagro 51c) and one single fragment of Late Roman 4 amphoras
indicate a major phase of commercial activity during the 4th and the first quarter of the 5th cent. AD. The significant
groups of Empoli’s amphoras' fragments can be linked with wine productions of the Arno valley. In the second half of
the 5th cent. AD the lack of pottery and four solidi of Leo I and Anthemius, hidden inside room of the south-west corner,
indicate that the building was almost entirely abandoned and that Portus Pisanus had lost the role of the first harbour of
Pisae. Rims belonging to Keay 52 and Late Roman 2 type amphoras prove that links with the main trade routes coming
from Rome and Ostia had not yet completely dissolved in the 6th cent. AD when the harbour recovered part of its
previous importance.

A. D.) of S. Vincenzino's villa (eastern ager Volaterranus), deals with the economy of the villae and of the north coastal Etruria as a whole. During the 3 rd -5 th cent. A. D. the need for oil is mainly satisfied by imports from Africa Proconsularis, attested by Tunisian and Tripolitanian amphoras. It's worth mentioning that, even if quantitatively reduced, the use of olive oil from Baetica, now traded in Dressel 23 amphoras, still goes on. As for wine, a number of sherd belonging to the so-called Empoli's amphoras (Ostia IV, 279) stated that a relevant part of the wine consumed in the villa come from local vineyards. Imports from south Italy (Keay LII) is attested too. It is meaningful, then, the presence of a number of Late Roman 5/6 and Dressel 30/Keay 1 amphoras, whose wines, maybe, are to be considered luxury goods.
