Ipogeo dell'Oplita

The hypogeum of the Hoplite was built during the 4th century BC, and was excavated in a tuff bench, closed outside by two limestone slabs. The name of the archaeological site derives from the bas-relief that is located at the inside: a hoplite soldier, a warrior from ancient Greece on horseback who had the task of preceding the knight into battle. The square structure has a large dromos, and typical funeral elements. The current state of conservation is quite good, and it is open to the public.
