Serra di Vaglio archaeological park, Archaeological site on Monte San Bernardo, Vaglio Basilicata, Italy.
The archaeological park extends across a plateau at 1,100 meters elevation, offering views of the surrounding Basento valley and ancient trade routes.
The settlement originated in the eighth century BC with circular huts of the Peuketiantes people, who buried their deceased in the fetal position.
The excavated structures reveal the transformation from circular indigenous dwellings to rectangular buildings, reflecting changes in architectural practices through centuries.
The park operates from June through August, with daily opening hours from 09:30 to 13:30 and 15:30 to 18:30, providing free entry to all visitors.
The House of Pithoi stands as a reconstructed fourth-century BC building, demonstrating the architectural techniques and daily life of ancient Lucanian inhabitants.
