Description

Necropolis of C.da Canale-Grotta Meraviglie

The site develops in an area south-west of the modern inhabited center and is cut by the provincial road. On the north side of the aforementioned road, arcosolium tombs from the early Christian era are clearly visible. In addition, it is worth noting the presence of a series of paleochristian hypogea among which the best known is the
so-called Grotta delle Meraviglie, which extends for about 20 meters from north to south and consists of a corridor flanked by arcosoli and niches.
