The subsoil of Naples was born with the city and with it has grown and today we are faced with a real history of Naples underground. The first artefacts of underground excavations date back to about 5,000 years ago, almost at the end of the prehistoric. Later the Greeks prelevarono large amounts of tuff for the construction of walls and temples and dug many environments to create a series of hypogeous funeral. Romans continued that corrupted the same cave as aqueduct. The aqueduct Claudio stretched for 400 km.
The aqueduct was used until 1884. During the second World War quarries were re-used as a refuge during the bombing.
