The Monte Vulture volcano is located on the eastern border of Southern Apennines at the inner margin of the Bradanic foredeep. A multi-disciplinary method taking into account geological, petrographic, volcanological and morphological aspects
been formed during Middle-Upper Pliocene, after the end of the main tectogenetic phases of the Apennine chain. In order to outline the geomorphologic evolution of the area, detailed geological and geomorphologic investigations have been carried out
