Discovering the roots of an ancient population
“History Is a Possession for All Time”.
Go through the doors of time. Your presence will bring to life the memory of a distant past, whose traces will be summoned on the slopes of this hill before your eyes.
A path of surprising installations, on the Baragiano hill, in the heart of Basilicata, to rediscover past times of aristocratic women and warriors armed like Greek heroes, across history, archaeology and mythology, through a labyrinth of knowledge.
The Archeoparco of Basileus welcomes its visitors to talk about Baragiano and the origins of an unnamed population. This land was a privileged meeting point for people of different races and cultures, between the mid-7th and early 5th centuries BC, as evidenced by the excavation campaigns.
