Le indagini del 2022 hanno ampliato notevolmente la visione architettonica e funzionale del complesso sacro lungo il fianco nord-occidentale della q. 542. A nord, nei pressi di una cava di gesso, un edificio assiale a tre vani fu in uso fino alla fine del IV/inizio del III secolo a.C. Sugli strati detritici, una nuova frequentazione ebbe luogo tra la fine del III e il II secolo a.C. Sul lato meridionale, un grande spazio scoperto fiancheggiava questo edificio e, dopo un piccolo ambiente trapezoidale con un diverso orientamento, che seguiva il pendio della collina, una grande stanza mostrava una fila di piccole cavità nel terreno. Due cavità contenevano offerte votive intatte, tra cui una statuetta raffigurante Atena. Un incendio distrusse questo edificio tra la fine del IV e l'inizio del III secolo a.C.

Abstract
The 2022 investigations greatly expanded the architectural and functional view of the sacred complex along the northwestern flank of the q. 542 elevation. To the north, near a gypsum stone quarry, a three-room axial building was in use until the late 4th/early 3rd century BC. On the detrital layers, new frequentation took place between the late 3rd and 2nd centuries BC. On the southern side, a large roofless space flanked this building, and after a small trapezoidal room with a different orientation, following the slope of the hill, a large room revealed a row of small cavities in the ground. Two cavities contained intact votive offerings, among them a statuette representing Athena. A fire destroyed this southern building in the late 4th-early 3rd century BC.| File | Dimensione | Formato | |
