Description
Pòppito in Latin "Post oppidum": "outside fortified city walls".
Used in Salento to give the rustic, boorish and also stranger.
When the Romans conquered the territory of Salento 267 a.c, with Brundisium -East gate-, Pòppito was the one who lived outside the city itself.
Today it is used by the inhabitants of the so called North Salento: Brindisi, Taranto and Lecce when they refer to the inhabitants of the extreme south of the Salento.
