Summary from Italiano / Italian Wikipedia (itwiki)

Calatia o Galazia (come era solitamente indicata nell'alto medioevo) era un'antica città etrusca, poi sannitica ed infine romana, che sorgeva lungo il tracciato della Via Appia, nel territorio dell'odierno comune di Maddaloni, grossomodo presso il confine con quello di San Nicola la Strada (ambedue in provincia di Caserta)

Summary from English Wikipedia (enwiki)

Cālātia was an ancient town of Campania, southern Italy, c. 10 km southeast of Capua, on the Via Appia, near the point where the Via Popillia branches off from it. It is represented by a locality known as Villa Galazia and by the church of San Giacomo alle Galazze (or San Giacomo delle Galazze or San Giacomo Le Galazze), within the modern town of Maddaloni, very near the boundary with the neighboring town of San Nicola la Strada, and right on the Via Appia. The Via Appia here, as at Capua, abandons its former SE direction for a length of 2,000 Oscan feet (500 m), for which it runs due east and then resumes its course SE. Ruins include remains of the walls (with sector from the Samnite age, in tuff, and others from the Sulla period) and the pre-Roman necropolis was partially excavated in 1882. The ten shafts lined with slabs of tuff which may have been the approaches to tombs or may have served as wells.

Se ubicaba en el lugar donde se halla la iglesia de San Giacomo alle Galazze, no quedando ruinas de la ciudad, aunque sí una gran cantidad de restos materiales dispersos, y una necrópolis prerromana que fue parcialmente excavada en 1882.
