North-west of Calvi Risorta, on the border with the municipalities of Teano, Rocchetta and Croce, a first archaeological investigation was concluded in October 2005. This was an emergency excavation rendered necessary by the actions of illegal excavators.

The large quantity of terracotta materials and pottery found during a first surface survey, together with the typology of the artefacts recovered from the confiscation of illegally excavated material, suggested the presence of a sacred area with votive deposits. A first votive deposit was uncovered comprising coroplastic terracottas, pottery and bronzes. Furthermore, to the east of this deposit, another conical-shaped votive pit was found filled with clayey soil, its walls lined with tiles. It contained a large quantity of miniature pottery vessels, both in the soil fill and contained within large jars.

The typology of the materials recovered to date attest an occupation phase dating to between the 5th century B.C. and the first half of the 4th century B.C.: male and female schematic statuettes, black glaze pottery, plain buff ware miniature stamnoi placed inside red bucchero jars, and bronze statuettes. The later were all standing figures between 7-9 cm high, schematic representations with the arms by the sides which can be compared to 5th century B.C. examples from Latium.

Lastly, the fragments of large draped statues, male and female heads, small clay figurines (so-called tangerines), as well as Red-figure pottery of probable Campanian production come from a slightly later phase (4th-3rd century B.C.).

To date no walled structures have been found; however, the presence of a large concentration of tiles and imbrices, as well as kalypteres hegemones, suggest the existence of what were probably cult buildings.
