'La Fornace': Scoppieto di Baschi Archaeological Site

Evidences of the importance of the Tiber in the historical-economic reality of the territory both in the pre-Roman and Roman period are the archaeological finds of Scoppieto, near Civitella del Lago, where the rests of a place of worship and a Roman ceramics factory have been brought to light. This settlement producing refectory ceramics dates back to the first period of the Roman Empire. Such objects were transported on boats leaving from the ports along the Tiber and reaching Ostia, where they were re-embarked to Africa and transported to Carthage, Alexandria of Egypt, Costantina. The material found is on display in Baschi Antiquarium. The visits to kiln and the antiquarium are managed by "Sistema Museo".
