The excavated portion of the ancient Roman town of Sentinum (Italian, Sentino), south of modern Sassoferrato in Italy. The ancient town was the site of a battle in which the Romans defeated the Samnites and the Gauls in 295 BC, but it appears to have been abandoned after the destruction wrought by Alaric's Visigoths in 409.
