Details:

The site of Falerii Novi is established in 241 BC when Romans resettle the Faliscan inhabitants of Falerii Veteres to this new site. It is a walled site in the Tiber Valley. The most visible feature on the site today is the gate known as the Porta di Giove and the church of Santa Maria di Falerii.

An important magnetometry plan produced by the British School at Rome (Keay et al. 2000) shows clearly the subsurface features of the site, notably the orthogonal town plan.
