Barrington Atlas: BAtlas 39 H2 Monte S. Martino
On Monte S. Martino, some 850 m above sea level, are the remains of a multi-phase ancient sanctuary with prehistoric origins. A large stone-built structure dating to the Roman period has been excavated, along with votive artifacts that indicate female deities were the objects of veneration. The site remained in use during the Roman period, continuing into the Medieval period. The archaeological museum in Riva del Garda preserves artifacts from the site.
