 On the Via Appia, to the south-east of the east gate of the town, arc two large and well-preserved tombs of the Roman period, known as "le Carceri vecchie" and "la Conocchia".To the east of the amphitheatre an ancient road, the "Via Dianae", leads north to the Pagus Dianae, on the west slopes of the Mons Tifata, a community which sprang up around the famous and ancient temple of Diana, and probably received an independent organization after the abolition of that of Capua in 211 BC.The place often served as a base for attacks on the latter, and Sulla, after his defeat of Gaius Norbanus, gave the whole of the mountain to the temple.
