Poggio Catino is a Italian: [[comune]] (municipality) in the Province of Rieti in the Italian region of Latium, located about 45km (28miles) northeast of Rome and about 20km (10miles) southwest of Rieti. As of 31 December 2011, it had a population of 1,335 and an area of 15km2.[1]
The village was created at the end of the 11th century, above the Moricone hill, to find a larger building space than that of the nearby village of Catino, founded in the 7th century, and nowadays a hamlet of it. The toponym itself describes the topography of the built-up area: a hillock (poggio) above a basin (catino). Anciently under the rule of Farfa Abbey, it became part of the Province of Perugia, after the Italian unification (1861). Since 1927, with the creation of the province of Rieti, Poggio Catino, as well as the rest of the new province, passed from the region of Umbria to the one of Lazio.[2]
Poggio Catino is a hilltown part of the historic region of Sabina. The municipality borders with Cantalupo in Sabina, Forano, Poggio Mirteto, Roccantica and Salisano.
Its only hamlet (frazione), is the nearby village of Catino (42.2905°N 12.6933°W), 1 km far and with a population of 112.[3]
