MEDMA
(Rosarno) Bruttium, Calabria, Italy.
On the W coast, ca. 43 km N of Reggio Calabria.
The history of the settlement, founded from Lokroi
Epizephyrioi, is little known. Remains of several sanctuaries have been reported from the site, and recent work
has revealed remains of the Hellenistic and Roman periods. Especially important is the deposit of terracotta
votive statuettes found at Piano delle Vigne in 1912 and
1913.
