In Rieti, an Exhibition Brings Back the Equipment of Italic Warriors

The Civic Museum of Rieti hosts an exhibition dedicated to pre-Roman Italy, designed to bring the public closer to the material history of the Italic peoples. The exhibition is open from May 8, 2026 to January 6, 2027 and offers a journey through weapons, armor, and symbols of social prestige.

The core of the project consists of reproductions from the Silvano Mattesini collection, allowing visitors to closely examine artifacts reconstructed with philological attention. The setup highlights the relationship between identity, power, and representation, showing how military equipment was also a tool of distinction.

For those who wish to delve deeper, the exhibition offers an interesting opportunity to learn about the liveliest dimension of archaeology in a museum setting in the center of Rieti.
