Tomba dell'Uovo (Tomb of the Egg)

The tomb probably dates back to the 6th century BC and features an ample tambour of about 25 metres in diameter, with an entrance and a podium. On the top of the tomb is an imposing egg-shaped stone, naturally formed, on which Etruscan letters are engraved.

Discovered in 2002, the tomb is located not far from the Etruscan village of Montereggi.
