Halaesa Arconidea (Tusa, Messina). Primi risultati dagli scavi delle fortificazioni, settore nord-est.
2023
This report describes the activities and results of two years of archaeological excavations carried out by the University of Palermo at the site of Halaesa, in northern Sicily. The excavations revealed the structure of the ancient city walls (maybe built in two different phases, during the Late Hellenistic/Early Roman peri-od) and the presence of a tank close to the wall, connected to the defense sistem.

Religiosi e “geometrie dell’impero”. Teorie e pratiche fortificatorie tra Mediterraneo e Atlantico
2018
Between the end of the fifteenth century and the beginning of the sixteenth, the changes in the military technology - mainly related to the spread of firearms - implied a re-elaboration of the fortification construction theories and, consequently, a practical experimentation aimed at the identification of architectural models capable to make the border areas safe and impregnable. Far from involving only a small circle of "men of arms", the debate about the “new art of the war” involved men whose formation can not be traced back to a specific type. Clearly emerges a fact: the involvement of ecclesiastics also as "technicians" for the design of defensive structures, was not a marginal phenome…
Neuf récits de sièges de villes dans la Bourgogne au Moyen Âge
2014
International audience; Neuf récits de sièges de ville dans la Bourgogne du Moyen Âge À l'heure où l'on entend dire et redire, avec plus ou moins de bonne foi, que l'archéologie est en train de découvrir un autre Moyen Âge et qu'elle seule peut apporter des sources nouvelles, ce n'est pas sans un brin de provocation que j'ai proposé d'approcher les enceintes urbaines bourguignonnes d'un point de vue strictement littéraire. Car, pour qui veut se donner la peine de bien lire le latin médiéval, les vieux textes classiques édités et paraphrasés depuis des siècles ont encore beaucoup de choses à dire. Et, s'ils ne prétendent pas à l'objectivité minérale et monumentale du mur de pierre, eux seuls…
Persistence of a mixed lactic acid bacterial starter culture during lysine fortification of sourdough breads by addition of pistachio powder
2020
Abstract Pistachio powder was added to flour or semolina to evaluate its contribution to increase the amount of lysine in bread. Bread production was carried out by sourdough technology using a selected 3-species (Lactobacillus sanfranciscensis/Leuconostoc citreum/Weissella cibaria) lactic acid bacterial (LAB) starter culture. All sourdoughs were subjected to a long-time fermentation (21 h) and showed levels of LAB around 109 CFU/g, indicating the suitability of pistachio powder for lactic fermentation. Yeasts were also detected, in particular in semolina trials. MiSeq Illumina technology was applied to investigate the bacterial composition of sourdoughs evidencing a different distribution …
City gates of Augustodunum and their architectural models (Gaul, Italy, Western Provinces of the Roman Empire)
2012
Augustodunum, civitas Aeduorum, roman city founded under the reign of Augustus, was equipped with four roman city gates : the gate of Arroux and the gate of Saint André, both well preserved, the gate of Saint Andoche which sole remaining part is a flanking tower, and the gate of Rome, destroyed long ago.The heart of this study lies in the stratigraphic reading of those gates structure and in thoughts about the building site of Autun’s city gates operating process. Moreover, since the 16th century, antiquaries, travelers and artists have described in many ways their visits to the roman city gates of Autun. These accounts constitute a major documentary collection of written and iconographical…
Research on regular priories, monastic and canonic in the formes dioceses of Chalon and Mâcon from the 10th to the 14th centuries
2013
The study presented here is the result from an inventory of the priories in the former dioceses of Chalon and Macon, closely dependent on the metropolis of Lyon .This territory corresponds to the main roads of the former realm of Burgundy. Among the 183 priories which have been retained, only 69 depended on Cluny, all the others belonged to the other monastic or canonic families of St Augustine’s order. The majority of these priories was mentioned for the first time by sources from late ninth and beginning of tenth century.The data collected have allowed to draw a map of the implanted sites in the form of a poster attached to the thesis and an index of the sources which are, for the most pa…

Interaction Pisum sativum (pois)- Pseudomonas: Conséquences sur la nutrition en fer, la croissance et l’immunité de la plante hôte
2017
SPEEABIOMEDOCT INRA; Le projet vise à progresser dans notre connaissances des interactions pois – Pseudomonas afin d’améliorer la nutrition en fer et la santé de la plante-hôte. Le pois représente un fort potentiel en agroécologie (symbiose fixatrice d’azote) et en nutrition humaine (graines riches en acides aminés). Cependant, sa culture est sensible à la carence en fer et à certains phytopathogènes. Pour promouvoir la nutrition en fer et la santé du pois, l’objectif est de valoriser les pyoverdines, sidérophores produits par les Pseudomonas spp. fluorescents, dont certains peuvent améliorer la nutrition en fer de plantes et sont responsables d’antagonisme envers des phytopathogènes. La st…
