Of particular historical and
archaeological interest they are the excavations recently effected near the
peak of
Mount Moro, where the
Archaeological Superintendence for
Umbria has started a series of excavations to bring to the light a
patrimony of findings in a place that in remote times had a notable role of
territory control. They have emerged so two paved environments belonging to a
Roman building of the republican period, but also figurines and traces of a
place of cult of Umbrian epoch, dated V-IV century B.C., flattened for making
space to the Roman construction.
The archaeological site of Mount Moro is a
destination of suggestive excursions organized by the
CAI (the
Italian
Alpine Club), of various duration, to arrive up to a maximum of three days,
during which the most fascinating and interesting parts of the
Nera Park are crossed, starting from
Ferentillo and its mummies, the Marmores
Waterfalls and the site of Mount Moro, only to mention some of them. The guides
of the CAI are at disposition of whoever wants to venture along the magnificent
Valley of the Nera and to discover the beauty of its peaks, long paths
loaded of art, history and natural shows. Such excursions are periodically
organized, and who want further information can directly turn to the section of
the CAI of
Terni.
