The Greek-Albanian settlement in Italy dates back to the XV century and is connected to the Albanian historical events of those years: the national Albanian hero, George Kastrioti Skanderbeg , busy fighting back the Turkish from Albania, took a vassal oath to Alfonso V of Aragon King of Naples in return for military aid and provisions that for many years guaranteed protection in the fighting against the Turkish. The oath can therefore be considered the juridical base of the subsequent Greek-Albanian immigration and settlement in Southern Italy.
With the death of George Kastrioti Skanderbeg in 1468 and the following storming of the Croia stronghold by the Turkish in 1478 starts the exile of the Albanian population in Italy. The establishment of the Arbëreshë community did not happen rapidly with a single displacement during the historical immigrations of the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries, but it is the result of a long and difficult process that has seen lots of transits in many different towns as well as a rapid set-up of temporary urban agglomerations that disappeared as quickly as they arose. Albanian minority settlements were absorbed by Italian communities; within the Italian territory a fusion of Albanian people of different origins, and of Albanian people and Italians occurred and many were also the displacements from an Albanian centre to another. Around the XV century San Marzano, like all its neighbouring populations, underwent what it was considered to be the third migration of the Albanian population to Italy. The third migration dates back between 1461 and 1470, when George Kastrioti Skanderbeg (Prince of Croia) sent an expeditionary force of about 5.000 Albanians led by his nephew Coiro Stresio in aid of Ferdinand I of Naples in the conflict with John, Duke of Durazzo.
On August 18th, 1461, Coiro Stresio defeated John’s partisan troops led by Piccinino in “Lago di Sangue”(Bloody Lake), located in the middle of the towns of Greci, Orsara di Puglia and Troia. As consideration for the services rendered Prince Skanderbeg was granted feudal rights over Mount Gargano, San Giovanni Rotondo and Trani, whereas the soldiers and their families were allowed to settle in other territories. From 1463 to 1470 in these lands arose the Alabanian communities of: Belvedere, Coronno, Civitella, Faggiano, Monteiasi, Montemesola, Monteparano, Roccaforzata, Crispiano, San Giorgio, San Martino, Santa Maria della Camera, Mennano, Sant'Elia, Lupara, San Paolo in Civitate, Castelmauro e San Giacomo degli Schiavoni (some of them are extinct); and those of: San Marzano, Chieuti, Campomarino, Casalvecchio, Portocannone, Montecilfone and Ururi (Albanian ethnic groups still exhisting ).
Ferdinand I enforced a policy for the repopulation of some Apulian areas and gave a safe shelter to the runaways and entire families to avoid slavery and in order to let them keep their religion. The migration continued at various times until XVI century. It is in this particular period that the “Salentinian Albania” comes into being. It included twelve Albanian-speaking communities: the first one was Faggiano followed by San Crispieri, San Giorgio, Carosino, Montemesola, Monteiasi, Monteparano, San Marzano, the hamlets of Belvedere, Civitella and San Martino. Until 1530 the current territory of “San MArzano di San Giuseppe” was divided into two wards: the feud of San Marzano and the “De Li Rizzi” hamlet. The first trustworthy news about the former date back to 1281 and those about the latter to 1196; they were probably areas that became depopulated and remained deserted until the arrival of the Albanians.
In 1530 the Albanian Captain Demetrio Capuzzimati bought both wards and reunited the territories that nowadays still constitute the territory of “San Marzano di San Giuseppe”. In order to facilitate the immigration of the families that would have inhabited the land the future citizens would have been Royal tax-exempted for 10 years.
The Albanian refugees that repopulated the hamlet brought their own traditions, religion and language. The Greek rite disappeared in the XVII century bringing the long-time conflict between the Greek rite and the Latin one of the Roman Catholic Church to an end. As a matter of fact, in 1866 the town’s name was changed from “San Marzano” to “San Marzano di San Giuseppe” and the church dedicated to Saint Venus-a typical eastern saint- was renamed in honour of the Latin Saint Charles Borromeo.
