Molpa, Archaeological site near Palinuro, Campania, Italy

The excavation site contains structural remains spread across the coastal landscape, with several areas still under active archaeological investigation and research programs.

During the Roman period, this maritime settlement functioned as a strategic port town, facilitating trade connections throughout the Mediterranean region.

The discovered artifacts and architectural elements at Molpa demonstrate the daily routines and social organization of ancient Roman coastal communities.

The archaeological area is accessible through designated footpaths descending from the surrounding cliffs, with guided tours available during spring and autumn months.

Researchers have uncovered evidence of maritime commerce through numerous preserved items that indicate strong trading relationships with distant Mediterranean ports.
