Comments
In the course of the new planting of this vineyard, the opportunity arose to check a site mentioned in the local records as a presumed villa rustica by means of an earth resistance area survey. The measurement image shows several compacted areas that can be addressed as the rubble scattering of a villa rustica. However, clearly identifiable, typical shapes of buildings are not recognizable, so that the findings could also be geological structures.
