Nicola Terrenato (born October 22, 1963) is an Italian scholar of ancient Italy.

Terranato was born in Rome.

A Classical archaeologist teaching in the Interdepartmental Program in Classical Art and Archaeology (IPCAA) at the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor Michigan, United States, Terrenato's expertise includes the Romanization of Italy and the archaeology of Etruria. He has excavated at Rome (Palatine Hill and Auditorium site), at Volterra and in the Cecina Valley, and in Basilicata.[1] Terrenato is the director of the Cecina Valley Survey in Northern Tuscany. Since 2007, Terrenato has been director of the Gabii Project at the site of the ancient city of Gabii, approximately 18 km east of Rome. His team completed two seasons of geophysical and topographical survey at the site (2007 and 2008), and began major excavations in June 2009. Excavations will continue through at least 2019. The Gabii Project has received support from the National Endowment for the Humanities as well as multiple other organizations for its continued research.[2]
