This paper analyzes the evolution of the neuter gender in Late Latin, focusing on the development from the classical plural agreement ending in -a (eg. illa brachia) to the plural feminine form ending in -e (eg. st.It. le braccia). I will further support that the Neapolitan variety is extremely conservative, by providing the first in-depth account of the Regii neapolitani archiui munumenta (tenth century) and analyzing the morphological and morphosyntactic characteristics of the collected forms.
