===Antiquity=== The territory of Corleone has been inhabited since prehistoric times. Recent research has identified several settlements distributed around two main areas: Pietralunga and The Old One (''La Vecchia''). This name refers to a mountain that rises to about {{convert|1000|m|ft}}, and is about {{convert|2|km|mi}} from today's town. The site of Pietralunga was occupied from the final [[Neolithic Period]] to the [[Bronze Age]] (the presence of a glass bell decorated in pointillé) while the site of The Old One has been inhabited since the [[Middle Ages]] (the presence of an imposing castle with towers has recently been identified). However, the biggest part of the settlement was built in the archaic and classical period. "A few materials relating to the [[Hellenistic]] period found at the site have supported the identification of the ancient town situated on the Old One with the ancient town of Schera, cited by [[Cicero]], [[Cluverio]] and [[Ptolemy]], although the archaeological remains on which this theory is based are still too unstable.{{Citation needed|date=November 2017}} (D'Angelo - Spatafora).
