MARZABOTTO

This article appears in Volume V17, Page 833 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: MAR-MEC
MARZABOTTO , a
village
  of Emilia, Italy, in the province of Bologna, 17 M. S.S.W. of Bologna by
rail
 . Pop. (1901), 617 (
village
 ); 5272 (commune). It lies in the valley of the Reno, 443 ft. above sea-level. In and below the grounds of the Villa Aria, close to it, are the remains of an
Etruscan
  town of the 5th
century
  B.C., protected on the west by the mountains, on the
east
  and
south
  by the river, which by a
change
  of course has destroyed about half of it. The
acropolis
  was just below the villa: here remains of temples were found. The town lay below the
modern
  high-road and was laid out on a rectangular plan divided by main streets into eight quarters, and these in turn into blocks or insulae. Cemeteries were found on the
east
  and north of the site. The name of the place is unknown: it was partially inhabited later by the Gauls, but was not occupied by the Romans.
The discoveries of 1888-1889 (with references to previous works) are described by E. Brizio in Monumenti dei Lincei (1891), i. 249 sqq. (T. As.)
