The tomb of the deer, inside the necropolis of San Giuliano (Poggio Caiolo), is of the nut type and is characterized by monumental dimensions. Its name derives from a low relief depiction, on the wall of the staircase to the left of the tomb, of a deer attacked by a wolf.

A very interesting tombstone dating between the 4th and the 3rd century B.C. On one of the main walls, you can see the engraving of a wolf attacking a deer (at least that is one of several interpretations). You may recognize this scene, as it is what inspired the official park logo.
