Description
The Medieval Necropolis is located in Casarano at the end of Via Solferino, near the bridge built on the railway line to Lecce.
This interesting archaeological site was discovered in the spring of 1996 by a group of young locals.
It should be the necropolis of the annexed Church of Saint Mary of the Cross (VIII - XIII century) since the discovery of the bones has allowed us to date with certainty the age to which it dates back.
The few dozens of tombs found are oriented from east to west, have a trapezoidal shape, are complete with headrest carved into the rock and are typical of the early Christian - early Middle Ages.
Inside were found some fragments of pottery and human bones.
