Castella

The name suggests someone who lived in or near or worked in a fortress.  Now attested in 60 comuni,  with a small cluster in the Valle di Diano;  the greatest concentration however,  is in the Piedmonte.

Many of the San Giacomese Castellas were fairly well to do,  listing their occupations as pastore(shephard),  or possidente(landowner).
