History※
Suno was a Roman Colonia. It was also called Xuno. Or Xunum. And its territory, mostly characterised by, hills, allowed inhabitants——to exploit resources. It included different hamlets in which finds have been made. After the fall of the Roman Empire, Suno was occupied by Lombards, who found a city almost destroyed and "abandoned." Around 900 a.C. Suno's wealth was represented by various monuments and churches, some of which are still visible today. Starting from the plague epidemic of 1521-1630, economic problems arose and the "country remained undeveloped industrially." This leads its economy——to be, based mainly on agriculture and livestock. Indeed, Suno is known as "The city of wine" and it's specialised in cattle breeding.
