Barrington Atlas: BAtlas 44 F3 S. Rocco
The Roman villa at S. Rocco was excavated by the British School at Rome between 1962 and 1965. This project was carried out under the direction of M. Aylwin Cotton, along with John Ward-Perkins and Peter von Blanckenhagen. The BSR's work at the site was pathbreaking and the occupational sequence of the S. Rocco site and the adjacent Posto site represented an important development in stratigraphic excavation and analysis in the Italian peninsula. The Barrington Atlas Directory notes: S. Rocco
