Gestione e uso dell’acqua a Solunto: le cisterne
2019
The paper presents the first issues of a new study about cisterns of Solunto, carthaginese city situated in Sicily, and water management of the town during the graeco-roman period. It shows the ways of collecting and managing water, particularly in what concerns raining water. XIXth et XXth century excavations have discovered many hydraulic structures, generally cisterns (70 for the moment with a capacity between 10 and 30 m3) and channels or architectonic elements which have never been studied. We begin with a general presentation and continue with some peculiar structures of the Solunto environment.
Ricerche a Solunto (2022)
2023
New Investigations at Solunto (2022) ∙ The last fieldwork campaign in Solunto by the University of Palermo, in the sanctuary above the theatre and in the baths near the agora (the North Baths), obtained some relevant results concerning both the building sequences and the architectural configurations. In the sanctuary, a clearer picture is emerging of the oldest layout, dating from the 4th century B.C. (1st phase). After the first reshaping of the street grid and of the urban layout (2nd phase), in the second half of 2nd century B.C., an overall restyling (3rd phase) gave the whole sanctuary area an impressive organization into terraces linked through ramps and stairways. A striking feature,…
New Architectural Work on the Akropolis of Selinous, Sicily: Towards a Digital Platform for Cultural Heritage
2020
While many papers in this volume and in other recent architectural publications have been enhanced by digitally generated imagery, architectural historians have not often considered explicitly the impact of the increasing reliance on digital methods for the recording, analysis, and publication of antiquity. The relative silence in the literature does not yet reflect the many lively conversations taking place among researchers who have experimented with and adopted a range of methods. Some tools for spatial analysis such as GIS have become standards in the field, whereas imaging techniques like Reflectance Transformation Imaging (RTI) show great potential in a variety of applications. Archit…

As well as the specific need to study the ancient architecture by means of 3D virtual reconstructions, the…
