Indeed, the phenomenon of stele statues spans a significant duration from the 3rd to the 1st millennium BC, with periods of increased activity and others of decline. However, determining precise chronologies and understanding their development poses challenges due to the limited archaeological data available. The stele statues of Lunigiana were discovered serendipitously and often in diverse periods and locations, making it difficult to establish their original contexts. As a result, the study and interpretation of these statues rely on comparative analysis with similar monuments and archaeological evidence from other regions. Despite these challenges, ongoing research and interdisciplinary approaches contribute to our understanding of the cultural and historical significance of stele statues in Lunigiana and beyond. Studying primarily the typology of the depicted elements on the stele statues, such as weapons and jewelry, a chronological range has been identified from the beginning of the Copper Age (late 4th millennium BC) to the full Iron Age (7th-6th century BC). In Lunigiana, around 80 stele statues have been found to date, which according to their shape have been classified into three distinct groups: A, B, C. A partire dal gruppo A, più antico, fino al gruppo C, più recente, si può notare una graduale evoluzione, nel senso di un sempre maggiore realismo nella rappresentazione della figura umana. It is also possible to individually analyze all the objects depicted to determine the period they belong to.
