Summary (English)
This project is using geophysical survey to investigate the nature of the archaeological remains in the vicinity of the ‘Sanctuary of Loreto’. Founded in the 4th century BC, Teano formed a major point in the communication between the valleys of Southern Lazio and the Plains of Campania. The most prominent archaeological remains of the pre-Roman and Roman town, are the theatre and amphitheatre, located beyond the area of the modern town. Surveys carried out over the past 3 years have revealed a wealth of information about the layout and fabric of the town, including the discovery of a second amphitheatre and temple.
