Alesa Arconidea (Tusa): proposta ricostruttiva dell’agora tardo ellenistica
2022
In the second half of the second century BC, in the wake of the building renovation that affected the most important urban centers of northern Sicily, even the ancient city of Alesa Arconidea remodeled its monumental structure. The agora/forum, in particular, was restructured in a scenographic system, acquiring the architectural characteristics of a typical Hellenistic monumental complex, similar to those of Greece and Asia Minor, by which it was influenced. In planimetric terms, to date up to the present time, the agora represents a unicum in Sicily because of its Π shape with deep double columns of the arcade, which enclose a large square excluded to vehicular traffic. Recent researches a…

Il progetto ‘Hierapolis Virtuale’: analisi integrate per lo studio dell’architettura ierapolitana. L’esempio del teatro extraurbano
2016
Nell’ambito delle attività della Missione Archeologica Italiana a Hierapolis di Frigia è stato sviluppato un ambizioso progetto di restituzione dell’immagine della città ellenistico-romana e bizantina denominato ‘Hierapolis Virtuale’, finalizzato al restauro virtuale e alla ricostruzione tridimensionale dei complessi monumentali oggetto di indagine da parte dei vari team di ricerca. Il progetto nasce nel 2007 e prende spunto da alcuni lavori eseguiti dal Laboratorio di Informatica Applicata ai Beni Archeologici e Monumentali dell’IBAM-CNR di Lecce negli anni precedenti, quali lo studio ricostruttivo del Ninfeo dei Tritoni, realizzato nel 2004 (rielaborato ed aggiornato nel 2010) e le scansi…
“Sources of Research” for the Virtual Reconstruction of Ancient Monuments: The Case of Architectural Models
2023
The use of architectural scale models, also known by the French word maquette or the Italian names plastico or modello, is an ancient practice, which prob-ably began when architecture emerged from its purely practical and utilitarian phase to become a formal category of knowledge with specifically sought-after and deliber-ately selected characteristics, linked to the increased dimensions and the enrichment of forms [1]. The model constitutes a representation, generally on a smaller scale and made of different materials but similar in effect, of a work to be created. Models are made of various materials, in accordance with the tastes of Scholars and with need, such as wood, wax, terracotta, …
Indagini archeologiche nella Chiesa di San Francesco d’Assisi a Butera
2014
The contribution illustrates the results of the archaeological investigations carried out on the occasion of the reconstruction of the internal floor of the Church of San Francesco d'Assisi in Butera. The excavation brought to light three phases of restructuring of the monument, between the fourteenth and seventeenth centuries, legible, on the outside, in the wall stratigraphy of the western side of the nave.
Ceramiche e altri rinvenimenti dalle cisterne del Castello di Butera: spunti e riflessioni
2011
The archaeological investigations (1998-1999) conducted in the area in front of the medieval castle of Butera (CL) have returned part of the internal courtyard of the building, equipped with a system of wells and siloi for water supply and granary. The stratigraphic relationships between the structures and the analysis of the material found inside the cisterns, as well as highlighting the different building phases during which the extensive collection system for water and grain was built (12th/13th-15th century ), allow us to have interesting indicators relating to the duration of circulation of the various pottery classes identified
I ‘vasi di Centuripe’: per un approccio integrato
2017
Il contributo intende evidenziare le prospettive di un approccio interdisciplinare integrato allo studio della ceramica policroma “di Centuripe”. Dagli inizi del XX secolo, tale classe ha riscosso ampio apprezzamento per le sue delicate pitture e la ricchezza di ornamenti a rilievo applicati (dipinti e dorati) che abbelliscono i vasi, rendendoli pressoché inutilizzabili nella pratica per scopi funzionali, ma altamente efficaci come doni funerari in antico, e oggi come pezzi di grande impatto per commercianti di antichità e collezionisti moderni. Data la piaga, diffusa fino a tempi recenti, degli scavi clandestini, dei “restauri” arbitrari e delle falsificazioni, i vasi di Centuripe necessit…

Research on the Theatre at Hierapolis Phrygia:An Integrated Approach
2011
Since 2004 the Theatre at Hierapolis in Phrygia has been the centre of a new research programme, led by Prof. Dr. Francesco D’Andria of Università del Salento, that incorporates architectural study, restorations and the monument’s presentation to the public. The programme has been conducted by the architectural historians from Politecnico di Torino and experts in 3D modelling and graphical restoration from IBAMLecce.
The Nymphaeum of the Tritons at Hierapolis of Phrygia (Turkey) from excavations to 3D-virtual reconstruction: an example of integrated methods in the…
2011
The Nymphaeum of the Tritons at Hierapolis of Phrygia is a monumental fountain of the Roman period with an imposing marble façade. Within the activities of the Italian Archaeological Mission the Nymphaeum is currently being studied by a team from the University of Messina with the goal of understanding its original layout and its history. The starting point of the study is the wealth of data provided by stratigraphic excavation of the building, particularly by the extensive archaeological deposits formed by the blocks of the façade collapsed into the pool of the fountain following an earthquake in the 7th century AD. The need to process a large amount of data required the creation of a comp…
