Scylletium, Archaeological site in Roccelletta, Italy
The ruins of Scylletium spread across a coastal plain near the Gulf of Squillace, featuring remains of Roman buildings and Byzantine structures.
The settlement originated as a Greek colony in the 7th century BC, later becoming a Roman colony named Minervia in 124 BC.
The archaeological park contains marble portraits of Germanico and Agrippina Maggiore, along with a Roman theater from the imperial period.
The National Archaeological Museum of Scolacium, housed in a 19th-century building, displays artifacts discovered during excavations at the site.
The site includes a monumental bronze arm purchased by Paolo Orsi in 1910, which became part of the Italian state heritage collection.
