Situation of the Golasecca culture to the south of the Hallstatt culture.

The Golasecca culture (9th - 4th century BC) was a Late Bronze Age/Early Iron Age culture in northern Italy, whose type-site was excavated at Golasecca in the province of Varese, Lombardy, where, in the area of Monsorino at the beginning of the 19th century, Abbot Giovanni Battista Giani made the first findings of about fifty graves with pottery and metal objects.

The culture's material evidence is scattered over a wide area of 20,000 km²[1] south of the Alps, between the rivers Po, Serio and Sesia, and bordered on the north by the Alpine passes.
