Monte Pruno, Archaeological site and summit in Cilento region, Italy.

Located within Cilento and Vallo di Diano National Park, Monte Pruno rises to 879 meters above sea level, surrounded by dense forest and mountain trails.

The archaeological site contains remains from the 7th to 3rd centuries BCE, revealing settlements of Oenotrian and Lucanian civilizations in southern Italy.

The mountain holds archaeological evidence of ancient communities, with artifacts and structures showing the development of early Italian settlements.

The site requires sturdy footwear and proper hiking equipment, as the terrain includes steep paths leading to both the archaeological area and summit.

Three distinct villages named Pruno exist around the mountain: Pruno di Laurino, Pruno di Valle dell'Angelo, and Pruno di Piaggine, each maintaining agricultural traditions.
