The museum was founded in 2003 to complete the initiative of the Archaeology School Yard and create an expression of time: the reading which extends to ancient times, runs through the centuries and comes to this museum through a representation of space in which with the remains of ancient houses, roads, fortifications, caves, vegetation, mirrors, sinkholes and “casedde” (typical dry stone constructions of Salento). The landscape and the built archaeological sites are elements considered as dimensional palimpsest on which all human and natural activities left traces highlighting and transmitting knowledge to the public. The access to the park is through the “Balcony on History”, a 10 meter high artificial terrace from which you can capture the richness of the landscape and that marks the discontinuity between the ancient and modern town. The area is fully served by a system of pedestrian and cycling itineraries, complete with furnishings such as waste bins, benches, bookstands and marker islands.
