2637 BCE to 910 BCE

Proto-Villanovan culture is widespread at the end of the Bronze Age (twelfth to tenth centuries BCE), in much of the Italian peninsula and north-eastern Sicily (including the Aeolian Islands), characterized by the funeral ritual of incineration.

The ashes of the deceased are placed into biconical urns decorated with geometric patterns.

Their settlements are often located on the top of the hills and protected by stone walls.
