Narce, Archaeological site in Calcata, Italy

The settlement spreads across three hills in the Treia River Valley, featuring remains of ancient structures and burial grounds from different periods.

The Faliscan settlement of Narce flourished between the 2nd millennium and 3rd century BC, maintaining strong connections with neighboring Etruscan communities.

The excavated tombs contained artifacts showing distinct burial practices, including the placement of opposite-gender items with the deceased.

The archaeological findings from Narce are now displayed at the National Etruscan Museum in the Villa Giulia in Rome.

Twenty-one cemeteries discovered at the site contained children's burials with miniature versions of everyday items, including vases and jewelry.
