The display cases contain a number of funerary objects dating from the 6th to the 3rd century BC and numerous items from the settlement: Hellenistic oil lamps, handles from transport amphorae with stamped marks; also of considerable importance is a fragment of a large vase with the figure of a telamon, which, in its configuration, reproduces those placed outside the temple of Olympian Zeus in Akrágas. Of interest are the four helmets, among the few finds of this type in the museum, of Greek and Roman origin.
