Domenico Santoro (died after 1688) was a local historian and physician closely related to the city of Altamura, Kingdom of Naples. He's known mostly for his essay "Description of the city of Altamura" (Italian: Descrizione della città di Altamura, 1688),which was the first complete essay on the history of Altamura, Kingdom of Naples (Italy). In his work, the author provides precious information on the history and the life of Altamura, perhaps drawing from documents now lost. The work has also been copied by priest D. Vitangelo Frizzale. The clearest limit of his work is perhaps the absence of critical analysis of the sources, and the commingling of history and legendary facts, as Ottavio Serena later pointed out.
