Lucani[edit]

I'm too lazy to do it now, but a lot of the info on the Lucani in the ==History== section should go also into a new article:Lucani (or Lucanians). Some of it needs to be trimmed from this article. There is also the article: Lucania. Alexander 007 07:17, 7 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Roman Period[edit]

The following statement makes no sense: "In the time of Strabo the Greek, cities on the coast had fallen into insignificance, and owing to the decrease of population and cultivation malaria began to obtain the upper hand." Why would a decline in population and lack of cultivation lead to an increase in malaria incidence? Seems more likely that there is probably some other common explanation, e.g. climate change increasing the swampiness of the area in the Roman period, that explains both. However, I'm no paleoclimatologist and am unsure how to find a source confirming such a hypothesis. --Mellsworthy (talk) 22:18, 14 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Demography[edit]

The following statements are not supported by the numbers given as between WWII and 1971, the population increases: "There was a slow increase in the population until World War II, after which there was a resurgence of emigration to other countries in Europe, which continued until 1971 and the start of another period of steady increase until 1993 (611,000 inhabitants)." --14:52, 30 July 2015 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 194.176.105.13 (talk)
