The site of "Valle Lagorara" is one of the most interesting archaeological sites in Liguria. This amazing outcrop of redjasper was exploited during the Copper and Early Bronzo Ages by prehistoric man to carve tools. The wall of the cave presents a very good state of conservation, and still preserves the some aspect it had during the Prehistoric Age. An interesting excursion takes origin just by the Information centre of S. Maria di Maissana and, after a pleasant 40 minutes walk gets to the archaeological site where it is also possible to take part to a demonstration of "jasper chipping" under the guide of export archaeologists. |
