  • Descrição: In the Spring and Summer of 2016 and 2017, the Universities of Oxford and Pavia, led by Milena Melfi and Maria Elena Gorrini, in collaboration with the British School at Rome and the Geophysic Lab of the University of Camerino, carried out non-invasive investigations of the area of Hadrian's Villa traditionally interpreted, from the 16th century onwards, as a reproduction of the Underworld. The little-studied and never published site (for a discussion of the previous research in the area cf. Gorrini et al., in press, with full bibliography), is located on one of the highest rises of the complex, in the eastern part of the Villa (Fig. 1) and it consists of: i) the Inferi, a Grotto/cave/nymphaeum connected to an artificial canal where water was channelled to evoke the river Styx in the land of the dead; ii) The Plutonium or Temple of Pluto/Hades, Lord of the Underworld, known from the first travellers’ accounts as a large building on a high podium; iii) a network of underground passages, partially connecting to the known routes running under the villa.
