Nanotechnology for Conservation: The Case of Archaeological Sites
2006
L'articolo espone le principali problematiche conservative dei siti archeologici e analizza la possibilità di applicazione dei nuovi nanomateriali, derivanti dalle nanotecnologie come soluzioni innovative per affrontare problematiche irrisolte con i prodotti tradizionali. The article presents the main conservation problems of archaeological sites and analyzes the possibility of new nanomaterials application, deriving from nanotechnologies as innovative solutions to address unresolved problems with traditional products.
“NUMMI DIGITALI”: approcci innovativi per la conoscenza, gestione e valorizzazione del patrimonio numismatico del Museo Archeologico Regionale “A. Sa…
2022
The subject of the contribution is the “NUMMI DIGITALI” project which aims to enhance the numismatic collection of the Archaeological Museum “A. Salinas” in Palermo, closed to public use for over seventy years, which will become accessible thanks to the close interrelationship between numismatic-archaeological methodologies and the IT approach. The project, curated by Lavinia Sole, Numismatics researcher at the Culture and Society Department of the University of Palermo, within the PON "Research and Innovation" 2014-2020, Axis IV-Action IV.4, provides for the creation of a digital database, in line with the standards and cataloging tools of the ICCD and with the methodological guidelines of…
Per un museo diffuso di arte contemporanea: il quartiere Eur a Roma. Frammenti di storia e paesaggio tra preesistenze archeologiche, architettura, ar…
2015
Abstract Obiettivi. Attraverso una lettura storico-artistica di alcuni manufatti collocati nel quartiere romano dell’Eur realizzati tra gli anni trenta e la fine degli anni novanta del Novecento, si vuole tracciare un percorso didattico, culturale e turistico che valorizzi il museo diffuso presente nel quartiere. Metodologia. La metodologia storico-artistica adottata comprende l’analisi del possibile Museo Diffuso analizzato rispetto al contesto spazio-temporale di realizzazione, il rapporto con la committenza, lo studio del profilo biografico e artistico degli autori coinvolti, il confronto con altre aree disciplinari. Risultati. L’intervento mira a tradurre i contributi scientifici sull’a…
Raman Investigations to Identify Corallium rubrum in Iron Age Jewelry and Ornaments
2016
International audience; During the Central European Iron Age, more specifically between 600 and 100 BC, red precious corals (Corallium rubrum) became very popular in many regions, often associated with the so-called (early) Celts. Red corals are ideally suited to investigate several key questions of Iron Age research, like trade patterns or social and economic structures. While it is fairly easy to distinguish modern C. rubrum from bone, ivory or shells, archaeologists are confronted with ancient, hence altered, artifacts. Due to ageing processes, archaeological corals lose their intensive red color and shiny surface and can easily be confused with these other light colored materials. We pr…
People buried in St Leger's chapel to Alise-Sainte-Reine ( Burgundy, France): reflections on the discrepancy between the archaeological data and the …
2003
As burial registers corresponding to a fully excavated funeral assemblage are rather rare, the present study endeavours toexamine both wrritten data and bone remains from a chape frequented during the 17th and 18th centuries. The disparity between thepopulatiom described by the two types of sources, particularly concerning the proportions of children in each, would encourage us toreconsider wiith caution the evaluation of burial groups based on bone assemblages which are not informed by written sources. Analysisof the latter will allow us to evaluate more accurately just how representative the archaeological evidence is with respect to the overalloccupation of a given site.
CONOSCENZA E CONSERVAZIONE. PROSPETTIVE PER LE DOMUS DI PIAZZA DELLA VITTORIA A PALERMO.
2014
Il tema di ricerca possiede un carattere multidisciplinare, coinvolge ampi settori e, con un approccio metodologico di tipo olistico, mette in evidenza le complessità storiche, artistiche, architettoniche, archeologiche e urbanistiche, tenendo conto delle differenti implicazioni sul piano sia tecnologico che museografico. Il caso di studio scelto, per elaborare una strategia d’intervento e riproponibile in altri contesti, è costituito dalle Domus di Piazza della Vittoria a Palermo, un exemplum di complesso residenziale unico nell’ambito della città, arricchito dalla presenza di importanti mosaici che testimoniano la circolazione di possibili culti praticati nell’area occidentale della Sicil…

Contribución al conocimiento de la secuencia arqueológica y el hábitat del Holoceno inicial en el Maestrazgo
2006
Se presenta el estudio de un total de cinco yacimientos localizados en el tramo superior del Riu de les Coces (Alt Maestral, Castellón). Partiendo de los problemas derivados de la naturaleza de la información manejada se aborda su contextualización en el marco de la secuencia arqueológica y del hábitat del Holoceno inicial en el Maestrazgo y en el contexto regional. Los resultados obtenidos permiten por un lado, relativizar la idea de una secuencia local continua e ininterrumpida desde el Magdaleniense superior hasta el Mesolítico Reciente, y por otro. la sucesión de dos modelos diferentes de ocupación del territorio.
Vegetation series as a marker of interactions between rural settlements and landscape: new insights from the archaeological record in Western Sicily
2020
[EN] Plant communities are complex and dynamic elements of the landscape, intertwined with both natural factors and human activities. Vegetation series reflect the environmental characteristics of the landscape, but also the anthropic impact, one of the exogenous forces that most profoundly affects the landscape formation process. This paper aims to investigate the interactions between long-term human settlement catchment areas and vegetation series. The case study area of the Sicani Mountains (Central-Western Sicily) proved to be an ideal place to perform GIS-based spatial analysis in order to compare a data set of rural archaeological sites and land units created through the mapping of ve…
