Fanum oblitterum. Il santuario e la stipe votiva della dea Marica tra vecchi dati e nuove ricerche

Abstract

Riassunto Il santuario della dea Marica sorge presso la riva destra del fiume Garigliano, nel territorio di Minturno (LT, antica Minturnae) e fu scavato nel 1926. La pubblicazione del tempio e della ricca fossa votiva avvenne nel 1938, ad opera di Paolino Mingazzini. Il santuario, appartenente alla dea Marica, è circondato da un lucus che gli antichi consideravano sacro, situato in prossimità di un tratto in cui il fiume ha le quote più basse e poggia sulle fondamenta di terreni alluvionali in prossimità di un'area da sempre paludosa: il nome di Marica indica forse « una donna/dea che si bagna nelle acque stagnanti », in perfetta corrispondenza con il luogo sacro di cui è stata, ininterrottamente, protettrice per secoli. Ancora oggi, a quasi 100 anni dalla scoperta, il sito è il principale marcatore documentario per ricostruire la religiosità e la cultura materiale degli Ausoni/Aurunci, sulla cui etnogenesi ed estensione territoriale le fonti letterarie, sia greche che latine, delineano quadri fortemente eterogenei. Abstract The sanctuary of the goddess Marica rises near the right bank of the river Garigliano, in the territory of Minturno (LT, ancient Minturnae) and was excavated in 1926. The publication of the temple and the rich votive pit took place in 1938, by Paolino Mingazzini. The sanctuary, belonging to the goddess Marica, is surrounded by a lucus that the ancients considered sacred, located near a stretch where the river has the lowest elevations and rests on the foundations of alluvial soils close to an area that has always been swampy: the name of Marica maybe indicates “a woman/goddess who bathes in stagnant waters”, in perfect correspondence with the sacred place of which she has been, continuously, a protector for centuries. Still today, almost 100 years after the discovery, the site is the main documentary marker to reconstruct the religiosity and material culture of Ausoni/Aurunci, on whose ethnogenesis and territorial extension the literary sources, both Greek and Latin, outline strongly heterogeneous frameworks.
