The cave of Bucito (or of Coluccio) is inserted in an important road junction, closely connected with the Tratturo Martinese, a primary communication route until the nineteenth century in Puglia.
West of the urban center of Grottaglie, at the foot of Mount Fellone, stands the Lama del Fullonese, a ravine full of caves dug into the rock that were once used as a refuge by man since the Paleolithic.
