An Etruscan community in Campania that is best known for the longest Etruscan inscription on a nonorganic material. The fifth-century BC Capua tile was found in a cemetery of the city and appears to be part of a ritual calendar. The settlement seems to have been formed from a loose scatter of villages over an area of 300 hectares.
