Le tre vite di un’effigie onoraria: usi e abusi di un ritratto virile dall’agorà/foro di Alesa (Sicilia)
2021
L’articolo esamina una testa maschile dall’agorà/ foro di Alesa, analizzando le tracce che ne testimoniano tre fasi di vita, consentendo di cogliere dinamiche e meccanismi della pratica onoraria e dei processi inversi di oblio o cancellazione della memoria. In origine la testa faceva parte con ogni probabilità di una statua augustea togata velato capite; nella sua seconda vita, viene trasformata in un ritratto di giovane principe della prima età costantiniana (probabilmente Licinio II, cui si riferisce anche una dedica alesina); nella fase finale, essa subisce abuso e viene sfregiata negli organi sensoriali. Anche abbattuta e vandalizzata, l’opera costituisce una presenza attiva nel centro …

La prospezione archeologica in Sicilia. Esame comparativo tra i territori di Alesa e di Thermae Himeraeae in età romana
2018
The aim of this paper is – from a comparative point of viewand to make an analitical and critical review of the archaeological surveys carried out by the University of Palermo in the hinterland of Alesa and Thermae Himeraeae (Northern Sicily) during the Roman period. The research is focused on: identifying the geographical and morphological characters, and the resources of the territory in Antiquity; analysing the distribution of the settlements in the Roman Age, connected to the resources and to the various aspects of the landscape.
Il progetto di Archeologia Virtuale ad Alesa Arconidea
2023
The Virtual Archaeology project at Alesa Arconidea · Virtual Archeology is the field of application that finalizes the use of information technologies for the knowledge, enhancement and communication of the archaeological heritage. It deals with the reconstruction of artifacts, buildings, landscapes of the past through three-dimensional models, hypertexts and multimedia solutions. The goal of Virtual Archeology is to promote the development of formalized investigation procedures and methodologies to acquire, represent, process and communicate data while producing new information and research tools that go beyond traditional forms and bring a contribution to the progress of the studies and p…
Telerilevamento di aree archeologiche mediante dati iperspettrali MIVIS
2004
The aim of this study is to examine the relationship between physical parameters and the spatial distribution of buried archaeological structures, using data acquired by the airborne hyperspectral sensor MIVIS in the visible, near infrared and thermal infrared wavelengths. The study areas are the territories of Halaesa, an important city in the Hellenistic-Roman period, and the Punic city of Mozia in Sicily. The influence of buried structures on thermal-radiative behaviour has been investigated using three parameters: Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI), thermal inertia, and Thermal Balanced Gradient. These techniques are shown to be particularly effective in identifying surface p…
