508789 - GREEK AND ROMAN ARCHAEOLOGY AND ART (MODULE LANDSCAPE OF ANCIENT CISALPINA) - PROFF. MAGGI STEFANO, GORRINI MARIA ELENA, STORCHI PAOLO

Landscape archaeology of Ancient Cisalpina: In this 18-hour class we will examine the Cisalpine territory and the changes in its landscape.

We will examine the region's ancient roads (the general characteristics of the road track and path, and how to reconstruct an ancient road-system), land divisions (we will analyse real Roman divisions and some other cases that seem ancient, but are not ) and, in general, the Man and environmental changes: rivers, coastline, and swamps between Republican and Imperial age in Northern Italy.
