Necropolis Banditaccia, Etruscan necropolis in Cerveteri, Italy.
The Necropolis Banditaccia spans 400 hectares with thousands of tombs carved into tuff rock formations, forming streets lined with burial chambers.
The burial site evolved from the 9th century BC through the 3rd century BC, transitioning from simple pit graves to elaborate multi-chamber family tombs.
The Tomb of Reliefs contains detailed carvings depicting everyday Etruscan objects, weapons, and religious symbols across its stone walls and pillars.
Visitors can access the necropolis Tuesday through Sunday from 9:00 to 17:00, with guided tours explaining the significance of different tomb structures.
The site features multimedia installations that project ancient decorations onto tomb walls, recreating the original appearance of burial chambers.
