This section
represents a little showcase to let you discover and admire
a (very small) portion of the lesser known but still
interesting archaeological finds unearthed
during the archaeological excavations in the area of the
ancient Locri Epizephyrii. Here you can see some
archaeological finds preserved at the
National Archaeological Museum of Locri Epizephyrii, lesser known than the ones
which can be found at the National Museum of Reggio Calabria.
Again, let me point out that this is just a little taste of
the extraordinary beauties found in the Locrian area after
thousands of years from their making, and this page wants to be,
if there is still the need, a further invite to you all to come
and visit the wonders of the Museums and of the archaeological
sites of Reggio Calabria's Province; places with a
millenarian history. |
