The museum houses and preserves most of the artefacts found during the various excavations carried out in the area of Montagna dei Cavalli and attributed to the ancient city of Hippana.These artefacts are housed in the museum&#8217;s archaeological section in which the results of the research, carried out in Montagna dei Cavalli, are illustrated through a pathway of educational panels and thanks to a significant selection of findings. Among the most significant findings, there are two silver-gilt diadems, found several years ago by grave robbers in the western necropolis and recovered by the Superintendency, and a small medal table displaying all the coins found in the settlement. These include some rare coins with the inscription IPA, which can be traced back to the mint of Hippana, those of Punic issuance in bronze, and those showing horses and palm, running horses and male heads. In the central room, it is also possible to admire many findings (achromatic and figured pottery, small terracotta statues, everyday life vases, etc.) handed by Prizzi\u2019s citizens over last decades, coming from clandestine excavations in necropolis of Hippana, occurred in the 1950s and in the 1960s. Finally, some showcases are dedicated to a selection of findings, from other archaeological sites in the territory of Prizzi, which bears witness to the continuity of life and the millenary history of this area.

On side B, a naked male figure on left in dance step; body bent forward in the act of holding a cup\/pattern. Behind the figure, a sort of scarf.
