Archaeological park of the ancient Picentia, Archaeological site in Pontecagnano Faiano, Italy.
The archaeological park contains remains of ancient structures, residential buildings, and urban planning elements from the pre-Roman settlement of Picentia.
Established in 268 BC, the Roman town of Picentia housed deported Piceni inhabitants following the events of the Second Punic War.
The excavated artifacts, including pottery and burial goods, demonstrate the daily practices and social organization of the Picentini civilization.
The archaeological park, maintained by the Soprintendenza di Salerno, opened to the public in 2015 and offers educational tours for visitors.
Archaeological research at the site has uncovered two sanctuaries and two necropolises dating back to the Copper Age, between 3500 and 2300 BC.
