All it Takes is a Little Clay

Just like Room 5 of Podere Cannicci which contained the ceramic workshop, you too can help us 'produce' our goal--all it takes is the smallest of contributions!

$28

Cost of a Trowel

The Trowel is an Archaeologist's primary tool in the field; at this price point, you'll supply a trowel for a student in need!

$37

Ex-votos!

Some 37 ex-votos were recovered at our site! The offerings were dedicated to fertility and were associated with cults of natural springs. Donate $37 if you want our campaign to prosper!

$50

Keeper of the Keys

Just as we found a mysterious key at the castle in the 2018 Archaeological season, you can now be the key to a student unlocking a great wealth of knowledge at the Impero Archaeological Field School.

$78

Sulla conquered the site

Around 78 BC, Sulla led a series of battles in Etruria and conquered a number of strategic places, among them our Republican sanctuary and village at Podere Cannicci. Donate $78 if you party for him!

$100

Centurion

A Centurion led a Century ranging from 80 to 100 men in the Roman military. Donate 100 dollars and be an honorary Centurion to the members of the Impero Project.

$150

All Roads Lead to Rome!

The Roman site at Podere Cannicci is exactly 150 Kilometers from Rome Itself!

$294

Rome arrived!

In 294 BC, Rusellae and its territory were conquered by the Roman army, and this part of Tuscany became Roman. If you donate $294, you are a real Roman citizen!

$400

The Etruscan cults

As far back as 400 BC, the site was an Etruscan cult place, with votive offerings and statuettes hoarded in the proximity of our site. Donate $400 if you feel like an Etruscan offerer!

$500

Etruscan dominance

The height of Etruscan expansion on the Italian Peninsula occurred in 500 BC. If you're a fan of the Etruscans and their culture that dominated Italy, donate 500 dollars.

$772

The Traces of Trade

In March 772 AD, written sources recorded a road for trading salt that crossed the River Ombrone--passing right through the location of our 1220 AD bridge! Get your name into the pages of history with this wonderful donation!

$1,140

The Castle Split

In this year, Pope Innocent II confirmed the castle to 2 Abbeys! Whether you donate alone or split the bill, you too can help us to recreate this moment.

$1,220

Across the Water

The ruined bridge nearby was first given life in the year 1220; make the cross and donate now!

$1,318

The Coming Flood

1318 saw the year of the flood that destroyed the bridge, but we would prefer for 2019 to bring donations instead of water!
