The Middle and Late Bronze Age settlement is among the largest villages yet discovered from its period in Northern Tuscany, and it was steadily inhabited from the 16th through 13th centuries BCE.

In the archaic Etruscan era, between the 6th and 5th centuries BCE, on the right bank of the Bisenzio, a new city was founded, characterized by an innovative urban project, with functions of control over the territory, over its transit networks and its commercial activities.

In Roman times, the territory enjoyed new prosperity, thanks to the presence of the major inter-regional road, the Via Cassia Clodia, and of the logistical structures that were built alongside it.
