Ustica is a small Italian island in the Tyrrhenian Sea. It is about 5 kilometres across and is situated 52 kilometres north of Capo Gallo, Sicily. Roughly 1,300 people live in the comune of the same name. There is a regular ferry service from the island to Palermo in Sicily.
Excavations begun in 1989 at Tramontana, also known as Faraglioni, have unearthed what was a large prehistoric village dating from the 14th to the 13th century BC. The foundations of some 300 stone-built houses were discovered, and the defensive walls of the settlement are among the strongest fortifications of any period known in Italy. It is believed that these early settlers came over from the Aeolian Islands.
