Mount Circeo, Limestone summit in Province of Latina, Italy.
Mount Circeo rises 541 meters above the Tyrrhenian Sea, forming an isolated promontory that extends 6 kilometers along the southwestern coast of Italy.
The Guattari Cave within Mount Circeo yielded significant archaeological discoveries in 2021, including the remains of nine Neanderthal individuals dating back thousands of years.
The mountain holds connections to Greek mythology as the legendary dwelling place of Circe, the sorceress who appears in Homer's Odyssey.
The hiking trail to Mount Circeo's summit requires approximately five hours to complete and demands substantial physical endurance due to its rocky terrain.
The mountain contains numerous coastal caves that have preserved evidence of Stone Age settlements, making it an important site for studying prehistoric human habitation.
