Sovana è borgo che fa parte del comune di Sorano, nella provincia di Grosseto, in Toscana, nel cuore dell’area del Tufo. L’attuale centro storico si sviluppò nel corso del Medioevo nelle vicinanze della preesistente necropoli etrusca, sotto il controllo della famiglia Aldobrandeschi, che vi fece edificare un castello intorno all’anno mille. Durante la passeggiata noterai l’edificio situato al centro, con un grande orologio sulla facciata, è il Palazzo dell’Archivio un tempo sede del comune. In q

@👀La prima relazione sulla Necropoli di Sovana si ha grazie all’inglese George Dennis nel 1843 ma è solo nel nuovo secolo, 1924, che si studia la Tomba Ildebranda, documentata e catalogata 3 anni dopo! 🗿La Tomba risale al III-II secolo a.C., ed è completamente scavata nel tufo…mi viene in mente Michelangelo quando diceva che “l’opera d’arte era già presente, “imprigionata” nel blocco di marmo, e il compito dello scultore era di rimuovere il materiale superfluo per rivelarla”.Il nome fu dato in
