Luni sul Mignone, the small hill which will be remembered for its important remains from the Bronze Age and for the Monumental Iron Age building, has also brought to light less important remains from the latter period, which will be dealt with in the present report. It was during the third Luni campaign, led by Dr Carl Erik Östenberg on behalf of the Swedish Institute in Rome, that I was asked to undertake an excavation on the NE side of the Luni plateau. In the hope of finding remains of habitation we started where there still seemed to be enough earth to produce a stratification, since higher up where the earth-layer was only 20-15 cm deep,…
Published by the Swedish Institute of Classical Studies in Rome. Distributed by Astrom Editions Luni sul Mignone e problemi della preistoria d’Italia By Carl Eric Östenberg Summary (excerpt) The Swedish Institute in Rome, in collaboration with the Soprintendenza alle Antichità dell’Etruria meridionale, started excavating the site named Luni in 1960.

The river Mignone that flows just below Luni was the boundary between Tarquinia and Caere. The hill is still called Luni by the inhabitants…
