Among the many contribution which Abbot Desiderius and his successor Oderisius I made to increase the power and prestige of the monastery of Montecassino during the fifty odd years of their combined rule (1058-1105) was their campaign to recover former possessions which had long since been alienated from the abbey. Admittedly they were not always successful, as with the abbeys of Tremiti and S. Sophia, Benevent 1 , but both lands and churches which the manastery had lost, primarily during the troubled early tenth century, were regained. One of the most important of these recovered possessions was the nunnery of S. Maria at Cingla, in the diocese of Alife, which was restored to Cassino by Count Robert of Alife and Caiazzo in 1094 2 .
