The Grotticelle Tombs are burials discovered in 1982 in the heart of the Rocca di Papa woods, halfway between Monte Cavo and Maschio delle Faete.
Among the various hypothesized dates, the most reliable would seem to be the one that places its construction in the Eneolithic period, between the Copper and Bronze Ages: these tombs essentially date back to around 2,500 BC.
The Grotticelle Tombs represent a unicum in the Castelli Romani territory, as well as a real enigma from an archaeological point of view.

To visit. the recent cuts make it difficult to reach the place and without the coolness of the trees you lose some of the charm of the place.
