3. Map of Volterra's territory in the Etruscan period copper and mercury mines; • = localities with material from 3rd century BC; Q = localities with material in general. harbour and commercial centre of Livorno ; Volterra's ancient harbour at Vada lies only 8 km away. Situated in the mining district north of the river Cecina, Terriccio was marked both as a copper mine and an Etruscan find spot on a map published by E. Fiumi in 1961 and in 1968. 6 In later versions of the map Terriccio has been omitted, 7 and it does not appear on more recent maps that record Etruscan mining activities. Here the Volterran area is represented by the copper mines of Miemo, Camporbiano, Montecatini Val di Cecina and Montaione. 8 Only in the latter two G Fiumi, E., La « facies » arcaica del territorio volterrano, Studi Etruschi 29 (1961) pp. 253­292, with a map ; the same map in Fiumi, E., in EAA VII, Roma 1966, p. 1199,fig. 1342. 7 Fiumi, E., I confini della diocesi ecclesiastica del municipio romano e dello stato etrusco di Volterra, Archivio Storico Italiano 126 (1968), map between pp. 24-25 ; from the map can be seen that Volterra's territory reached closer towards Livorno in the Etruscan period, and the area between Fine, Cecina and Lopia, where Terriccio is situated, made part of the municipium of Volterra as late as the Roman imperial period ; since Longobardic times it has belonged to the diocese of Pisa ; see also Fiumi, E., Fioritura e decadenza dell'economia fiorentina, Archivio Storico Italiano 116 (1958) p. 450. 8 E. g.
