Epizephyrian Locri, Archaeological site in Calabria, Italy.

The archaeological park stretches along the Ionian coast, featuring remains of temples, public buildings, and ancient city walls from Greek colonization.

Founded in the 7th century BC by settlers from Locris, the city developed into a major trade center near the Aspromonte Mountains.

The site contains artifacts from Bronze and Iron Ages, including religious offerings, pottery, and inscriptions that demonstrate Greek influence on local life.

The archaeological park opens daily except Mondays from 9:00 AM to 8:00 PM, with the ticket office closing at 7:00 PM.

The city produced one of the oldest written codes of law in history, created by philosopher Zaleucus in the 7th century BC.
