The group split again living medieval and Renaissance: appreciated and needed by prestigious historical, lupanare (for secc. XIV and XVI) and leprosarium are reproduced through clothes, accessories and furnishings. At Novae this group becomes a lupanare of the first century after Christ.
- Terra Taurina - Terra Taurina is an association, but also a group of friends, which works through publications, meetings, conferences and events to safeguard and divulge the historical, linguistic, traditional and artistic patrimony of Piemontese and Aosta Valley’s territory, seeking those bonds with more ancient roots and our more deep values.

  • United States:
- Nova Roma - Nova Roma is an international organization dedicated to the study and restoration of ancient Roman culture. From its founding to 330 CE, when it ceased to be the center of Imperial authority, Rome laid the foundation for our modern Western civilization. Founded 2,750 years after the Eternal City itself, Nova Roma seeks to bring back those golden times, not through the sword and the legions, however, but through the spread of knowledge and through our own virtuous example.

Both groups colaborate very closely in reconstruction of celtic life in 2nd and 3th century b.c. in Hercing forest. Objective of groups in colaboration with archaeologists is to reconstruct civil life, handcrafts and military life of our predecesors - the Celts.
