Lanciano
According to research in recent decades, the area of Lancaster was the seat of human settlements since the Palaeolithic. A Marcianese was discovered a set of sunken huts funds traced to the fifth millennium BC and remains of engraved pottery belonged to the Neolithic Abruzzo and Marche. In the mid third millennium BC dates back human settlement in Serre, whereas the one discovered in S. Egidio, Montanare beneath the towers, dates from the second millennium BC After the start of the Iron Age discoveries are few traces of the people or Pelasgian illidici and is possible at this stage would go up the foundation of Anxa (or hsi).
The city of Lancaster was founded by Suleiman, a companion of Aeneas and founder also of Sulmona, which, to honor the memory of a mate, Anxa, founded the city called Anxanon or Anxi. Around 1000 BC, populations originating from a wide area of central-southern, were subjected by Osco-Sabelli peoples who originated Italy: Umbria, Sabines, Samnites and Volsci. Samnites descended from the Frentani who settled along the coast between the Abruzzo-Molise Pescara river and the river Fortore, around 800 BC Populations were based on a political organization that included two main groups: the tribe and family or at most cities in the organization was headed by a senior. The economy was based on agriculture trade, benefited from many ports, was flourishing. The language of Frentani was one of many dialects derived from 'Osco spoken by the ancestors of the Samnites. There were several invasions by the Etruscans, the Gauls and then the Romans, who finally conquered in 435 BC Several witnesses state that Lancaster was the first "colony" of Rome and then "Town Hall", probably the capital of Frentania or at least the area above it, in addition, some plaques go up to a certain presence of typical buildings and monuments of the city of that period: the spa, theater, bridge the valley of stony (dedicated to the deity of Diocletian), temples dedicated to Juno, Apollo, Mars, aqueducts and fountains. The ancient Anxanum, probably suffered severe looting by the barbarian hordes and around the year 571, it seems that it was completely razed to the ground by the Lombards, on the ruins of cities now destroyed, built a circular fort located in the most high and therefore more easily defensible (Col Erminio) and just around the fort began to gather the indigenous population which gradually rebuilt their homes. With the advent of the Byzantines in Italy, Lanciano remained faithful to the Lombards, the Greeks fighting that initially failed to enter the city but around 610 AD settled in the church dedicated to Saints Legonziano and Domitian, here around 700, was the famous Eucharistic miracle that is still preserved and venerated in the church of S. Francis (built later in the same place). Just as in the rest of Italy under Byzantine rule, also Lancaster saw the flourishing business that was developed mainly in atenea court (court anxiana) around the fortified church of St. Legonziano and Domitian.
