The findings are probably related to an area of pottery fragments, maybe a villa, located 400 meters away. The tombs have been damaged by illegal excavations, sometimes seriously; despite the ravage it was possible to date two burials through the burial implements left: the Tomb 1, a cremation with covering “alla cappuccina”, can be dated to the second half of the I century AD, the Tomb 2, a cremation with covering “alla cappuccina” and a concrete structure, can be dated to the II century AD. The other graves are typologically similar to the Tomb 2, might therefore be coeval.

These findings are probably related to a settlement dating back to the last decades of the fourth and early third century BC. The remains consist of a checkered masonry water tank, an underground tunnel (probably a sewer), a wall made of tufa blocks, and a quite large area scattered with potsherds and heaps of stone chips. Tentatively, some underground cavities (basement/cellars), later reused as dwellings, may also be related to this settlement. This second phase of the settlementapparently less permanent and less structured than the firstcan be dated to the second century BC, or a little later. The stratification within the late Etruscan dwelling consists of some beaten earth floors associated with hearths and few finds: food remains and fragments of pottery (mostly jars, lids, and amphoras for domestic use).

The paper describes the features and finds substantial differences, according to which the kilns can be traced roughly to two chronological-and cultural-horizons; it was observed that the lining of the walls of lime-kilns can occur in two different forms: a mixture of clay lining the walls or a masonry composed of stone's fragments or reused bricks; the latter type of lining characterizes the kilns found inside or in the immediate vicinity of wrecked Roman buildings and that seems to be a distinguishing factor of the lime-kilns dating from the early medieval period.

I materiali rimandano ad un orizzonte cronologico compreso fra l'età flavia e l'età traianea.
