I've been there twice but it is never open when I am in Italy and this makes me feel sad

Beautiful site, recommended guide! A bit of history: Silius Italicus, in the Punicae (book VIII, 495-501) writes: Angitia, daughter of Eeta, first discovered the evil herbs, so they say, and handled the poisons as mistress and drew the moon down from the sky; with cries the rivers held back and, calling them, he stripped the mountains of the woods. Often associated with the Roman Bona Dea, known as Anctia among the Marsi and Anagtia among the Samnites, the Peligni called it Anaceta or Anceta, it was often associated with the cult of snakes.

An important architectural element of the site is the "Opus Reticulatum" wall style.

Lucus Angitiae, also known more simply as Angizia from the name of the homonymous goddess, is an archaeological site recognized as a national monument located near the southern shore of the Fucino basin, near the contemporary town of Luco dei Marsi in the province of L'Aquila. (from wikipedia) The goddess Angizia, sister of Circe and Medea, was revered by the ancient Marsi before the Roman period.

A small but very small temple for the history of the Italic peoples. A guide to make the visit is advisable.
