The Ernici volcanoes are located not far from Frosinone in the Sacco Valley (also known as Latina Valley), between Monti Ernici and Monti Lepini, and consist of about twenty monogenetic pyroclastic and lava centres with an age from 0.7 to 0.1 Ma (This territory was also indicated as Hernican District or Hernikerland in the early scientific literature).

The main centres of vulcanism are: Castellone (lava and pyroclastics, 0.68-0.70 Ma); Tecchiena (lava and pyroclastics, 0.54 Ma); Pofi, Arnara, Boschetto Est, and Colle Moscardino (lava and pyroclastics, 0.43-0.40 Ma); Giuliano di Roma (lava, 0.42-040 Ma); Patrica, Supino, and Monte Acuto (pyroclastics, 0.40 Ma); Celleta, Selva dei Muli, and Morolo (lava and pyroclastics, 0.29-0.22 Ma); Colle Spinazzeta, Selva Piana, and La Badia (lava and pyroclastics, 0.17-0.24 Ma).

Eruptive activity started about 0.7 million years ago (Basilone & Civetta, 1975) with the effusion of lavas on to arenaceous and/or carbonate bedrock. Towards the close of activity, between about 0.1-0.2 million years ago, lahars related to phreatomagmatic events were emplaced along valleys cutting through the carbonate sequence. These consist of aggregates of carbonate fragments and lava xenoliths (containing pyroxenes, biotite, garnets, olivine, and feldspars) in an ashy matrix cemented by calcite and zeolites (De Gennaro & Franco, 1971). Along the bottom of Fosso Pisciarello (Supino) and Fosso di Monte Acuto (Giuliano di Roma), the lahars have been highly weathered to form an unlithified reddish unit with a halloysite-10 Å matrix. Most of the minerals from the lahars have been only slightly altered, the exception being biotite, which often shows a partial or complete transformation to vermiculite and, rarely, extreme alteration to smectite (De Gennaro & Franco, 1975; Pozzuoli et al., 1992).
