This paper examines the theme of the recovery of epigraphic models in the early medieval period, focusing in particular on the city of naples. By considering the possibilities offered by a combined palaeographic and historical-archaeological approach, the study compares two significant graphic monuments of elite context: the inscription of Prince Sico of Benevento († 832) and the funerary epitaph of the neapolitan Duke Bono († 834). This comparison allows for the extraction of ‘alternative’ information on the development, in the 9th century, of a propaganda project centered around the figure of Saint Januarius.

Abstract
This paper examines the theme of the recovery of epigraphic models in the early medieval period, focusing in particular on the city of naples. By considering the possibilities offered by a combined palaeographic and historical-archaeological approach, the study compares two significant graphic monuments of elite context: the inscription of Prince Sico of Benevento († 832) and the funerary epitaph of the neapolitan Duke Bono († 834). This comparison allows for the extraction of ‘alternative’ information on the development, in the 9th century, of a propaganda project centered around the figure of Saint Januarius.File in questo prodotto:
