The archaeological area of ​​the Hospital of San Nicolao di Pietra Colice in Liguria.
Some time ago I finally managed to find a companion to walk the path of Monte Nicolao (one of the highest mountains in the area where I live) and, having left the car shortly after the Passo del Bracco, we set off along the beautiful path.
The first and perhaps most interesting stop was certainly when we reached the area of ​​the ancient Hospital for pilgrims who came from the hinterland along this road.
The name of the road was certainly not encouraging: "the road of the brigands".

Have you ever heard of this archaeological area near Sestri Levante?

Although the immediately superficial layers of the site can be ascribed to the medieval period, the frequentation of the site of San Nicolao dates back to at least 4000 BC, as demonstrated by radiocarbon analyses conducted on the lower layers. In particular, the various excavation campaigns carried out have brought to light, in the southern sector, much earlier deposits.
