The archaeological area includes a sector of the monumental necropolis that developed between the late Hellenistic age and the early Imperial age along an extra-urban road axis that, leaving the ancient city of Abella, led westwards towards the Campania plain.
The complex open to the public includes four funerary mausoleums delimited by fences and built in opus incerta or reticulated, with brick inserts.
The mausoleums are part of architectural types widely known in other contemporary centres of ancient Campania.
