The first human settlement on the shores of Lake Albano is a pile-dwelling village found in 1984 with the recent phenomenon of the lowering of the water on the north shore of the lake.
Known as "Villaggio delle Macine", due to some stone millstones found there, its dating ranges from the 20th-19th century BC, up to the Middle Bronze Age (17th-16th century BC).

The village could be traced back to the urban structure of the mythical Latin metropolis - in the etymological sense - of Alba Longa, razed to the ground by the Romans around the 6th century BC, according to tradition by Tullo Ostilio.

𝗥𝗼𝗺𝗮𝗻 𝘁𝗶𝗺𝗲𝘀
In Roman times it was known as Albanus Lacus and lay not far from the ancient city of Alba Longa.
With a depth of about 170 m (560 ft), Lake Albano is the deepest in Lazio. The lake is 3.5 km (2.2 mi) long by 2.3 km (1.4 mi) wide, and was formed by the overlapping union of two volcanic craters, an origin indicated by the ridge in its center, which rises to a height of 70 m (230 ft).

Plutarch reports that in 406 BC the lake surged over the surrounding hills, despite there being no rain nor tributaries flowing into the lake to account for the rise in water level.
The ensuing flood destroyed fields and vineyards before eventually pouring into the sea.

It is thought to have been caused by volcanic gases, trapped in sediment at the bottom of the lake and gradually building up until suddenly releasing, causing the water to overflow.

𝗗𝗿𝗮𝗶𝗻𝗮𝗴𝗲 𝘁𝘂𝗻𝗻𝗲𝗹
Around 395 BC, during the wars between Rome and Veii, a discharge tunnel was built.
It served as an emissary whenever the water level overflowed its mouth.
According to Titus Livius, this feat of engineering was incited by the Oracle of Delphi: the Roman victory against Veii would be possible only when the lake waters were channeled and used for irrigation.

𝗟𝗮𝗸𝗲 𝗔𝗹𝗯𝗮𝗻𝘂𝘀 𝗶𝗻 𝗥𝗼𝗺𝗮𝗻 𝗠𝘆𝘁𝗵
During the war with Veii in 393 BC the level of Lake Albano rose to an unusual height even in the absence of rain. This prodigy was believed to be relevant on the siege of Veii because a haruspex from Veii recited some lines of a prophecy that illustrated the relationship between the level of its waters and either the safety or the fall of the town to the Romans.

It foretold that as long as the waters of the lake remain high Veii would be impregnable to the Romans.
If the waters of the lake were scattered in an inland direction on the other hand Veii would fall; but if they were to overflow through the usual streams or channels toward the sea this fact would be unfavourable to the Romans as well.

This legend would show the scope of the powers hidden in waters and the religious importance of their control by man: Veientans too knowing the fact had been digging channels for a long time as recent archaeological finds confirm. There is a temporal coincidence between the conjuration of the prodigy and the works of derivation recommended by Palladius and Columella at the time of the canicula, when the waters are at their lowest.
