Industries in Non-elite Orientalizing Architecture
Evidence was found for several industries in the non-elite Orientalizing Period architecture in the area known as Civitate A. Evidence of processing and carving of animal carcasses has been found near Structure 1 of Civitate A, including worked bone and antlers that show evidence of the striations associated with a rigid saw. 15 spindle whorls of varying sizes were discovered, which were likely used to produce the thread of wool due to the amount of sheep bones discovered nearby. A singular loom weight was discovered in Structure 1. 31 rocchetti, which were used as spools or bobbins in textile work, were also found. Evidence of metal working is represented by the large quantity of slag found near Structure 1. Crucible fragments, a possible furnace, and bronze artifacts such as pins and fibulae were found that show more evidence of metal working in Civitate A.
