Gli scavi in via Galluppi

The via Galluppi excavations have brought to light buildings dated back to the 2nd century B.C. In the 1st century A.D., a sigillata workshop run by the potter L S M and a building connected with cooking food activities were operating in the area. The workshop stopped the production in the late 1 st century A.D., while the building had various rebuilding interventions. In the second half of the 2nd century an insulated room was built, with a very thick under-floor level consisting of fragments of imported amphorae. In the late 2 nd-early 3rd century A.D. this building was abandoned and from the late 3 rd century the area was occupied by a necropolis.
