Curatelli, almost unique, would seem to derive from Basilicata from the Bari toponym of Corato. additions provided by Francesco Curatelli The surname Curatelli has a single origin; in fact, its derivation from the surname Coratelli due to modification of o in u (due to dialectal inflections) was ascertained in a town in Basilicata in which the forefather had moved from Andria in 1700 My father Emilio, a native of Montalbano Jonico (MT) , went to search in the parish archives of his country, going back to the XVIIIth century, when the forefather Domenico Coratelli (still with the "o") settled in Gallicchio (PZ) from his native Andria (near Corato, from which the original surname). My father succeeded in finding in the parish archives (the only source of information before the Napoleonic legislation of the early 1800s) the marriage and other subsequent deeds (wedding witnesses or baptisms) in which we can see how gradually the change took place in Curatelli (in dialects lucani there is this tendency to pronounce o as u). In fact there is an intermediate act in which in the text of the document the author of the act wrote Domenico Curatelli, and the interested party signed Domenico Coratelli. This surname was then transmitted to the descendants living in Italy (now scattered in many places) and in Argentina.
