In the second display case, other finds from Casella are displayed, but these originate in the late archaic Paleolithic period (about 32,000 years ago). Other finds are displayed in the third and fourth display case (axes, arrowheads, spindles) collected on the plain of Curinga, bearing clear witness to human presence in the Neolithic age. In the fifth display case, one may admire the money hoard of Acquafredda, consisting of 56 stators of ancient Sibari, two pegasuses of Corinth, and a silver piece weighing about 58 grams. In the same case there are also decorated ceramic objects (fragments of dishes and vessels) found around Sansinato of Catanzaro.
