    Summary (English)

    • Along the line of via Campana, in the locality of S. Vito, excavations reopened on the necropolis of the same name, in the sector between monuments 21 and 22 on the eastern side of the road. An _opus reticulatum _ enclosure emerged, inserted in the empty space between the above mentioned funerary monuments. It was covered by massive accumulations of alluvial material and ancient dumps, the first of which, formed between the 1st and 2nd century A.D., contained a fragmentary head of a female statue. To the east numerous single cremations, inhumations and amphora burials came to light, datable to between the mid to late imperial period. The excavation also led to the detailed exploration of the architectural characteristics of monuments 22 and 21 north, which fitted within the typology already known in the necropolis
