Abstract
In 2014 a brief excavation was carried out by Soprintendenza BB.CC. AA. of Agrigento in the archaeological site Monte Adranone near Sambuca di Sicilia. There last century scholars have identified the ancient Adranon, mentioned by Diodorus in regard of the first Punic war. According to the archaeological data the ancient city was settled in the 6th century BC, probably by Selinous, fortified during the 4th century BC and destroyed in the middle of the 3rd century BC. The new dig has investigated the necropolis near the South Gate of the city and we have found ten tombs cut in the rock, dated to the 4th-3rd century BC.
