Ciauscolo (sometimes also spelled ciavuscolo or ciabuscolo) is a variety of Italian salame, typical of the Marche region (especially of the Province of Macerata), although it is also widely used in nearby Umbria (especially in the territory of Foligno and part of northern Valnerina).

[edit] Etymology

The word "ciauscolo" is related to the local dialectal word "ciausculu", although which one derives from the other remains unclear. A possible origin for ciauscolo is the Mediaeval Latin word "cibusculum", meaning "small food", or be related to the local dialectal word "ciausculu" (although it is unclear whether the one derives from the other, or vice versa)
