Calvi (Campanian: Coppacorte) is a comune (municipality) in the Province of Benevento in the southern Italian region Campania, located about 60 km (37 mi) northeast of Naples and about 10 km (6.2 mi) southeast of Benevento. It also belongs to the Samnium historical region. Its territory has an altitude of between 169m and 388m above sea level.
The name Calvi is derived either from the Latin adjective 'Calvus', meaning a barren or treeless place, or it could possibly come from the Latin name 'Calvus,' indicating ownership or property.
