Soluntum, Archaeological site in Santa Flavia, Italy

Located 183 meters above sea level on Monte Catalfano, Soluntum contains extensive remains of buildings, streets, and public structures from ancient times.

Founded by Phoenicians in the sixth century BC, the settlement became one of three principal Phoenician colonies in Sicily before Romans gained control.

The excavated structures reveal a combination of Phoenician, Greek, and Roman architectural styles, with temples showing influences from multiple civilizations.

The archaeological park receives approximately 10,000 visitors annually and maintains regular opening hours for exploring the ancient urban layout.

Water systems, private houses, and an agora remain visible at the site, offering direct evidence of daily life in this Mediterranean trading center.
