Necropolis of Prato Rosello, Etruscan necropolis in Artimino, Italy.

The necropolis extends across a hillside slope, featuring multiple burial mounds with rectangular chambers and preserved stone structures beneath the soil.

The archaeological site contains tombs dating from the eighth to sixth centuries BCE, with the Tomb of the Warrior's Well discovered intact in Tumulus B.

The burial structures demonstrate Etruscan funerary practices through their architectural design, including vestibules, staircases, and monolithic walls.

Visitors can reach the necropolis by following a marked woodland path from Artimino town, leading to a clearing with visible tomb formations.

A seventh-century BCE bucchero thurible, an Etruscan incense burner, was recovered from the site and now resides in the Artimino Archaeological Museum.
