(ANSA) - ROME, JUL 23 - An agora of almost 33 thousand meters, the largest in the ancient world that returns to show its borders.


   And then the remains on the acropolis of what seems to have been the sacred place of the first Greek settlers of Selinunte.

But also amulets, a precious ivory mermaid and a stone mold used to melt a bronze scepter.

These are the discoveries of the excavation campaign led by the archaeologist Clemente Marconi and which sees together the Institute of Fine Arts of New York University and the University of Milan with the German Archaeological Institute.

"Very important findings", underlines ANSAMarconi.
