In the area of the Gorgat, south of San Canzian d'Isonzo, work carried out in 1928 by the Brancolo Canal Reclamation Consortium brought to light, on the left bank, wall structures and a valuable mosaic floor with black and white tesserae and a meander frame; these remains probably refer to the residential part of a rustic villa.
Research conducted in the area in 1993 and 2006 allowed the collection of additional data, particularly on the dating of the complex, which can be attributed to a period ranging from the 1st to the 3rd century AD.
The extent of the villa is not known, but the discovery on the surface, after plowing, of a large amount of archaeological material-mostly building material-even on the other bank of the Brancolo canal suggests that the villa was large in size and extended further southward.
