Olivieri* This article is dedicated to the memory of Sebastiano Tusa (Palermo 1952 – Bishoftu 2019) prematurely died in a tragic plane crash in Ethiopia on his duty as archaeologist. Sebastiano Tusa was the excavator of Aligrama in Swat, member of the Italian Mission, a great manager of Sicily’s immense cultural heritage, and a great friend of Pakistan. Abstract: The article reports on the archaeological data provided by the 2018 excavation at the urban site of Barikot, Swat (NW Pakistan). The campaign focused on the last phases of occupation of some residential and cultic areas located in the SW sector of the city, Units C and B. The excavation in Unit C reveals that the reconstruction activity following the seismic event occurred at the end of Period VII (mid- 3rd century) caused a substantial contraction and redistribution of the living spaces. The investigation of the Kushano-Sasanian phases in some areas of the so-called Temples C and B, enriched our knowledge of these urban cultic areas, both in terms of architectural layout and ritual practices. Keywords: Kushano-Sasanians, abandonment phases, residential units, urban cultic areas Introduction Mr. Fazal Malik guided the team of specialised The site of Barikot (Bir-kot-ghwandai or BKG) local workers. has no need of being introduced here anew.
