These are two reliefs of modest size, separated by a small hill elongated in an East-West direction where the cliffs stand the necropolis. On these hills, probably in the sixth century. BC, settled people sicane that at the end of the century came into contact with the Greek colonies of Himera and the Punic Soluntum, as the research conducted in the last decade have demonstrated. Located in the hinterland, on the watershed between the river San Leonardo and Milicia, the sites are located in a key point, in an area open to the connections between Palermo, Solunto and Himera. Archaeological excavations are conducted by the Chair of Ancient Topography of the University of Palermo, in agreement and cooperation with the Superintendence of Cultural Heritage of Palermo, and with the logistical and financial support of the City of Baucina. Investigations affecting a sector of the necropolis located along the southern slope of Monte Falcone, as action to combat the phenomenon of illegal excavations. For this purpose were undertaken a series of geophysical surveys. The survey results showed the presence of various structures likely archaeological interest. Subsequent excavations made in areas investigated by geophysics have unearthed different types of funerary structures: burials in graves or nasturtium, cremation within pithoi or amphorae. The dead were accompanied by grave goods of the Greek tradition: skyphoi, achromatic cups, etc. Particular interest is a large tomb in an artificial cave entrance that consists of pillars and lintel plaster. The
grave diggers violated by poachers is unique for their monumental architecture. It was reached by a corridor carved in the rock, in whose landfilling, as well as numerous ceramic fragments were recovered a bronze coin.

the main Italian and foreign cities, the local manufacturers mastered in a short time the secrets of ceramic art, always paying attention to the eccentric tastes that were fascinated by the Far East. The purpose of this
essay is showing which were the lines of exchange and influence that led to new ways of majolica manufacturing, now influenced by the East. This was possible mostly thanks to the new possibility of acquiring the manufacturing secrets of other European States.
- nella prima fase è stata intrapresa una sperimentazione che ha consentito di mettere a punto una relazione empirica che lega la costante dielettrica relativa al contenuto volumetrico in acqua di vari tipi di legni. In questo caso sono state utilizzate le metodologie GPR (Ground Penetrating Radar) e TDR (Time Domain Reflectometry);
- la seconda fase ha previsto la progettazione di un prototipo di georadar;
- la terza fase ha previsto le applicazioni ed i test in situazioni reali.
