Close-Range Photogrammetric Tools for Epigraphic Surveys
2016
In this article, we present a method to carry out a computerized epigraphic survey of historic stones and their engraved epigraphy. In fact, the preservation of archaeological objects has always been an issue of concern for the research community. On the one hand, the fragility of the objects limits their study. On the other hand, such objects are housed in museums, libraries, and institutions worldwide, locations that significantly limit their accessibility. Different survey methods have been carried out in these attempts to overcome the aforementioned limitations. Among them, the MicMac open source software was used in this work to survey and process the dense correlation of the hieroglyp…

2020
Nueva edición y comentario filológico de una larga y compleja inscripción votiva de la época de Cómodo que consta de un poema en latín (redactado en hexámetros dactílicos) seguido, a modo de complemento y amplificación, de un texto griego en prosa pero con cierto color poético. La inscripción está dedicada a la Ninfa de un santuario termal, mencionada con lo que parece ser un nombre o epíteto local, y consiste tanto en la conmemoración del cumplimiento de un voto determinado como en la narración de las fiestas anuales que la unidad militar (numerus) comandada por el dedicante celebraba, mediante ofrendas votivas y sacrificios, en honor tanto de la Ninfa del lugar como de Asclepio, Panacea, …

La lettera di Adriano ad Alicarnasso e la cultura storico-antiquaria in età adrianea. Riflessioni sull’iscrizione AE 2012, 1550
2016
Nel 2012 è stato pubblicato il frammento epigrafico di una lettera dell'imperatore Adriano alla città di Alicarnasso in Caria (AE 2012, 1550). Gli autori presentano alcune riflessioni sulla cronologia, sui contenuti superstiti e sulla cornice culturale di questo interessante, seppur lacunoso, documento. L'analisi della titolatura imperiale adrianea permette di affermare che la lettera è stata scritta tra il 128 e il 135, come risposta a una petizione di Alicarnasso. Si ipotizza che la città fosse stata danneggiata nel 128 da un terremoto, che avrebbe colpito anche Rodi, Astypalaia e altre località costiere della provincia Asia. Adriano avrebbe concesso finanziamenti pubblici per la ricostru…
‘The Source of Damasus’ Inquiry on the Proper Time to Celebrate Mass in London, British Library, Stowe 944 and in London, British Library, Cotton Cal…
2011
This is the first thorough study of a text occurring in two Anglo-Saxon manuscripts. The Latin source of the Old English text preserved in mss. London, BL, Stowe 944 and London, BL, Egerton 3314, fols. 9-72 + Cotton Caligula A xv, fols. 120-53 (Cameron B.12.10) was unknown. The essay provides evidence for the OE text being a translation of a Latin text on liturgical questions. This discovery allows understanding the very nature of the OE work, fosters its correct classification and provides a rationale for its collocation in the two Anglo-Saxon mss. Conceived as a dialogue between pope Damasus and Jerome on the hour of the mass, the OE text turns out to be a translation of one of the short …
