During the construction of a military fort in the 1892 they came recovered, near the hill of Talamonaccio, numerous fragments of frontonale relief belonged to a tempio subsequently characterized little under the top of the same hill. The structure laughed them to IV the century a.C. and had presumablly to be Etruscan, but the fronton came much later placed on the building, probably in the 150 a.C.; fire traces make to presume little that the tempio it is burnt, after the 100 a.C., perhaps during the social war between Mario and Silla, or for natural causes.
