Abstract
In the light of structures (drainage canals, wells, cisterns) and the finds, the site can be interpreted as an urban sanctuary during the Etruscan time. Some fragments of terracotta belong to a small statue of Hercules, who continued to be worshipped during the Imperial age, when the area is considered to have been a thermal-sanctuary. In addition, for the first time, the presence of a network of mineralized fractures in the underground tunnels is documented.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
