The toponym
Salento has uncertain origins. According to the research of Mario Cosmai, the
word “salento” seems to derive from “sale” (salt), meaning “land surrounded by
salt-sea”. Romans, in fact, called Sallentini the inhabitants of arid marshes that meet around the Gulf of Taranto.
According
to the Greek geographer Strabone, the toponym seems to derive from the name of
the Cretan colonists who settled in this land, called Salentini as native of
the city of Salenzia.
In the end,
we have the hypothesis of Marco Terenzio Varrone, according to which, the
origin of the word “salento”, takes its name from an alliance drawn up “in
salo”, that is “in the sea”, among three ethnic groups that lived there:
Cretans, Illyrians, Locrians.
