Italic sanctuary

San Giovanni in Galdo is the site of a Samnitic sanctuary atop Colle Rimontato (709 meters a.s.l.). Excavated between 1974 and 1976, the sanctuary took the form of a frontal Italic podium temple surrounded by a portico. The ritual activity at the sanctuary was confine to a limited area, likely indicating that the temple served a discrete, local population.
