On the back of a hill, between via Verdi and via Mascagni, a Roman villa was found, attributable to an emperor, perhaps Tiberius, or to a person of high rank. Its history is to be articulated into at least four phases of occupation, the first of which goes back to the Augustan period.
The residential complex is distinguished by its position in the neighborhood of the Imperial villa of Pompey the Great, for the rich finds, such as marbles, portrait heads of Tiberius gemello, Campana plaques with iconography of Theseus and Skiron, and for the variety of the pictorial cycles that cover the rooms.
