for the first time I found the Torcello Museum http://www.euromuse.net/en/museums/museum/view-m/museo-di-torcello/ open. Its first two sections proposes artefacts linked to the ancient and contemporary of the city, but the archaeological section permits a further jump well before the Middle Ages, in the time of the Veneti, of Rome and well before. The Micenean and Greek ceramics found around and inside the lagoon indicates it was an active commercial and residencial center well before of the first phase of the Barbarian migrations https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barbarian_invasions which in the 4th - 5th cen. A.D. pushed Roman-Venetian populations into the lagoon. Any comment from your side is welcomed.
Salutations
Giancarlo
