As the first civilised and organised inhabitants of the Salento now occupied by
the provinces of Lecce, Brindisi and Taranto, the Messapians created a
civilisation that was very advanced for its time, evidence of which, sometimes
very impressive evidence, has come to light in recent years, during the numerous
excavations that have taken and are taking place all over the area.
Archaeological and epigraphical heritage of great interest can be admired at
Lecce's Provincial Museum (the oldest in the region), Gallipolli's Civic Museum,
Alezio's Archaeological Park, Ugento's Civic Museum, and for an overall picture in Taranto's National Museum.
At Salento, there is tourist accommodation available in hotels, farm holiday,
farmhouse, residence self-catering accommodation, b&b, rooms for rent, holiday
homes, camp sites and tourist villages.
