In later age there settled Greeks and Etruscans, and then was a Roman colony. During middle age, the community dispersed in various houses, to then meet again after the arrival of the Normans, around the castle they built ,that even today, with the bell tower, dominates the town. In later periods the community continues to grow with a strong agricultural economy favored by the presence of water and based on the cultivation of olive trees, hence the name Oliveto. In truth, however, the strength was and is still trading, facilitated by geographical location. The country today is presented with a typical medieval center built around the castle and the church.
