Abstract
The cultural facies of Stentinello developed within the context of the culture of “Impressed Ceramics” that spread from the Near East towards the central Mediterranean, certifying the expansion of this Neolithic civilisation. The diffusion of the facies of the Stentinello culture covered a vast area, from southern Calabria to the whole of Sicily (Tiné 2002), in a period around the fifth millennium BC.
