Capracotta, Mountain municipality in Molise, Italy
Located at 1,421 meters above sea level, Capracotta extends across 42 square kilometers of mountainous terrain in the Province of Isernia.
Archaeological findings near Romito Mountain revealed a bronze plate with Caraceni inscriptions, now exhibited at the British Museum, indicating pre-Roman settlements.
