Lunigiana

The name Lunigiana is thought to have come from the Roman settlement at Luni, which is now actually outside the boundaries of modern Lunigiana. You can visit the ruins there, which date from 177 B.C. The first known settlings of the Val di Magra the valley that runs through the Lunigiana along the A15 Autostrada took place a thousand or so years before Christ.

The standing carved stone stelae or statue-menhirs found in the area attest to the earlier culture, we call them the Ligui-Apuani but don’t know much more than they raised cattle.

The Val di Magra fell under Byzantine rule in the early middle ages, when Luni was the base for the Byzantine fleet which had its main port in the Island of Sardinia. The Longobards came in 643, from the tenth century, on Luni hosted a bishop installed by Emperor Otto I.
