Necropolis of Campovalano, Ancient necropolis in Campli, Italy
The archaeological complex extends across 500,000 square meters between the Church of San Pietro and the town of Campli at the base of Gemelli Mountains.
The burial ground operated from the 12th century BC to the 2nd century BC, serving the Pretuzi and Piceni populations of the Italian peninsula.
Excavations have uncovered 600 tombs containing bronze vessels, glass necklaces, amber ornaments, ceramics, and daily life tools from ancient civilizations.

Researchers estimate the presence of approximately 20,000 burials across the entire area, making it one of the largest ancient cemeteries in central Italy.
