Carpineto Sinello (Abruzzo)

Carpineto Sinello is an Italian town of 546 inhabitant in the province of Chieti in Abruzzo , part of the union of the municipalities of Sinello .
It owes its name to the nearby river Sinello and the black hornbeam forest.

The town is located on a hill on the slopes of Monte Sorbo . The center dominates the valleys of the Sinello river and the Ferrato torrent . Among the various centers that dominate the valley of the Sinello river, Carpineto Sinello is the one that retains the greatest physical dependence on the proximity of the watercourse: the territory was very equipped with mills (the land offered abundant wheat , as well as olive oil and wine to be resold even outside the country) and fishing was very active.

The first mention of the town is in 1156 when it is mentioned in the Catalogus Baronum when it was a fief of Roberto di Monteferrante for the favors of Symon, Count of Sangro . In the twentieth century archaeological finds were found at the church of Santa Maria ad Sinellum which is still in 1568 while it is a ruin in the eighteenth century . Later it results of various successor feudal lords of the di Sangro after the fifteenth century (according to some scholars from 1576 ) including the Acclozamora, the Pignatelli , Giulio Gesualdo , Girolamo Diaz and the Bassi , later related to the D'Alanno .
