This villa rustica, situated in the locality of Le Piane, Larino, stands to the east of the Cigno torrent and circa 3 km from the river Biferno, on lowland at 120 m a.s.l. It is positioned between two important ancient tratturi: the Centocelle-Montesecco to the north and the Ateleta-Biferno-S. Andrea to the south.

Although the villa has not been completely excavated, the work undertaken to date has exposed the rooms around the west-north-western part of the courtyard. Three main sectors were identified: a west-north-west wing with five residential rooms, a north-eastern wing, of which two storerooms were uncovered and the third sector (rooms 3 and 5) in the central-southern part, with two arms of the corridor opening onto a porticoed courtyard.

The stratigraphic data, including that relating to the floor surfaces, and the pottery forms demonstrated five phases in three periods) The first (end of the 2nd – beginning of the 1st century B.C.) was attested by black glaze pottery from inside the excavation area and the areas around it. Phase two (1st century B.C.) saw the construction of the villa with walls of opus incertum which characterise the residential zone, with mosaic floors, organised around a porticoed courtyard and the storeroom, which in this phase perhaps also included part of room 4 and of the north-western part of the courtyard. Phase three (end of the 1st century A.D.) saw the obliteration of the peristyle when the structures in opus mixtum were built with reused materials from phase two. This construction coincided with the restructuring/enlargement of the storeroom. The fourth phase cannot be dated but coincides with the abandonment of the complex after the robbing of the structures. The final phase (modern period) was represented by the progressive build up of the agricultural terrain.
Further excavation will provide data regarding the organisation of the rooms surrounding the peristyle, and the size of the structure itself.
