Atessa/Porcari Sanctuary

A small Italic sanctuary, possibly of Vejovis, in a modern area known then as Passo Porcari (between Monte Marcone and Saletti) near Atessa in Italy's Chieti province. It was excavated in the 1970s and is memorialized by the modern street name "Via Veiove". Rescue excavations of purportedly medieval finds were carried out in the immediate vicinity between 2017 and 2020 ahead of a road modification.
