Province of Campobasso, Region Molise, Italy

The Locality: The ancient name of the place in the early Middle Ages was "Ripa gotorum". A legend says it was founded by the Goths, who invaded the Roman Empire in the 5th century AD. In 1181 the name appeared in records as "Ripabrunaldo", and under the Norman occupation it was a fiefdom of Giuliano from Castropignano. In the 17th century it was a fiefdom of the Carafa, followed by the Francone family, and finally of Ambrogio Caracciolo.
