The origins of the trulli are controversial. It seems certain that the trulli of Valle d'Itria arises from both the italic and the need deriving from poverty. The landscape is
tableland of Murge, where there is plenty of limestone. It was therefore necessary to make it cultivable land cleared of stones. These stones were made of dry stone walls to delimit
properties and shelters.

Selva his own feud separated from the Court of Naples and therefore incited farmers and their families to live there. But when the Pragmatic edict imposed Baronibus
directing the authorization of all constructions, the Count of Conversano ordered his people to use dry-stone in and prohibited the use of Malta. So in the case of inspections
government, the Trulli could be disassembled and reassembled in hours.

dome of the imperial palace of Constantinople. Finally, the Latin term with its alterations turris Turull, Trulli, trullum to indicate a small tower.
