Two hypogeum tombs dating from the 3rd to 1st centuries BC are visible in this necropolis, which (possibly) belonged to the Calcina gens.
Etruscan Volterra had probably been conquered by Rome as early as 298 BC, but its civilization and rituals remained present for a long time.
The tombs were probably discovered in 1880, but the date is uncertain.
