This paper explores the syntactic status ofcheand (il)qual(e) relativizers, i.e. what are standardly referred to as relative complementizers and relative pronouns, in Old and Modern Italian and Italian varieties and proposes a unified analysis for both types of items. It takes into account the ongoing debate regarding the categorial status of relativizers (Kayne 1975,2008,2010;Lehmann 1984;Manzini & Savoia 2003,2011, among many others) and aims at showing that what we call complementizers are not C0heads, as commonly assumed. Instead, we propose that both relative "complementizers" and "pronouns" have the same categorial status, i.e. they arewh-items and are part of the relative clause-internal head
