According to historical reporters Ciatti and Iacobilli the village of Casacastalda was supposed to be built by the Longobards, on the ruins of a previous village founded over 1000 years b.C. by another population: Umbrian people. The name was Causentinum.

Roman writer Pliny the Elder, in his scripts, while listing people living in this area, wrote about a Causentiliani people after other ones like Aesinates (territory surrounding Jesi) and Camertes (territory surrounding Macerata).
