A Final Bronze Age settlement of five hectares in the Tolfa hills with large walls around the settlement, set in a prominent panoramic location close to the rich mineral resources and close to major torrents of Mignone and Marangone. The tomb of Poggio Ombricolo is probably related to the settlement. Related sites in the same area of the Tolfa hills include Allumiere, Caolino, Castellina di Marangone, Cibona, Coste del Marano, Croce di Bura, Fontana del Papa-Tolficciola, Forchetta del Sasso, Forchetta di Palano, Monte Urbano, La Tolfaccia, Monte Sant’Angelo, Monte delle Grazie, and Tolfa.
