history

According to legend, Ascanius and Senius , sons of Remus , the co-founder of the city of Rome , fled in 753 BC. After his death to the north. Here Senius founded Siena while Ascanius founded Asciano. What is certain is that the area began as early as the 7th century BC. BC by the Etruscans , who planted tombs such as Poggio Pinci or Tumulo del Molinello , settled and was called Haxo . Under the Romans , the name of Axus , Axia and Axiana was transformed into the Roman name Axianus and Axianum, respectively . The mosaic of a floor in today's Via del Canto, discovered in 1899, was also created at this time . In the time of the Lombards , the place was the seat of the Gastaldi , who built a fortress with Borgo (suburb) here. After the slow decline of the Dinasty, the Scialenghi family took over the fortress in the 9th century and expanded it into a castle. The Scialenghi later became part of the Cacciaconti family , who held sole control of the place until 1168. The place was conquered by Siena on September 15, 1168, the fortress was destroyed, but six years later Florence took the place under its protection. However, this only lasted two years when Florence sought and found peace with Siena. A year later, the population of Asciano rose again against Siena. In 1213 a Podestà was elected for the first time in Asciano , which was called Palmiero di Bonico and was confirmed by Siena. Under him the place got its first city wall, which was dismantled by Florence in 1234.

In the run-up to the Battle of Montaperti on September 4, 1260, the troops from Florence had their camp in Asciano. From here they went to battle on September 2nd, when they were defeated by Siena. During the battle, Siena received help from units from Asciano, who were then called garbati ascianesi (popular Ascianes) by Siena . Under the government of the nine (Governo dei Nove, 1287 to 1355) the place grew into an important trading center. From 1319 the Tolomei family acquired considerable parts of the center and the surrounding villages, such as Chiusure or Serre (today Serre di Rapolano ). From 1342 to 1352, the city wall of 1287 was considerably reinforced at the endeavors of Siena. The importance of Asciano for Siena was recognized by Siena on August 17, 1369, when the residents of Asciano were granted the right to citizenship of Siena with all rights. In 1465 the place equipped itself with its own statutes . Even before the defeat of the Senese Republic in 1555 by the Republic of Florence , the place fell to the Duchy of Tuscany in 1554 . In 1777, through the territorial reform Riforma Leopoldina of Grand Duke Leopold I , the place was united with the previously independent but smaller municipalities of Chiusure and Monte Sante Marie to form Comune Asciano.
