Pleiades
La Selvicciola had at least six occupational phases. The earliest phase witnesses a republican villa (third century B.C.) built atop an earlier Etruscan farm. The third phase (dating to the Iulio-Claudian period) see large scale expansion of the villa. The latest phase (seventh and eighth centuries A.D.) sees a partial reuse of the site, including the torcular, and the beginnings of the Longobard cemetery.
