The Area Archeologica di Sant'Antonio is one of the four tomb complexes discovered in the territory of Ugento. It is possible to admire the necropolis of Sant'Antonio, near a stretch of Messapian city walls, located just a few steps from the Cripta del Crocefisso and a dovecote probably of medieval origin. Completely dug into bedrock outcrops, it now has 30 graves, originally covered with slabs of rocks. The internal walls have restored some traces of matching red and blue used for band decorations. Retrieved from most of the graves were equipments dating between the fourth and third centuries BC and one from the sixth century BC consisting of, among other things, local pottery production and imports from the area of Egnazia.
