Evidence of interpersonal violence occurs both directly, in the form of skeletal trauma, and indirectly, if reconstructed from
archaeological contexts, providing useful information on behavioral and cultural aspects of ancient human groups. The osteo-
logical remains of an adult male discovered in grave number 31 at Nogarole Rocca (Bronze Age - VR, Italy) provide us with
both information. The inhumation was associated with a bronze dagger blade but, most interestingly, a perimortal injury
resulting from a flint arrowhead was identified in his fourth thoracic vertebra, interpretable as proof of interpersonal violence.
This evidence increases the framework of knowledge about episodes of interpersonal conflict among Copper and Bronze Age
communities in northern Italy.
