    This paper describes a procedure of archaeological interpretation and representation based on DEM technology. Through different contexts of application the aim is to describe the potential of this procedure, useful for recreating all the stratigraphic complexity of an archaeological site. After an introduction and a short history of studies about the use of DEM in archaeological documentation, the Author illustrates two examples of archaeological excavation and two of archaeology of architecture. The first case study is the Castle of Castelpizigolo (Toano, RE): the DEM documentation was used for the production of automatic profile lines of every archaeological stratification. A similar result was obtained in the documentation of the second archaeological context, the site of Capo Don (Riva Ligure, IM). The subject of this investigation was a fireplace dating from Late Antiquity to the early medieval period. The second part was focused on the use of DEM in the archaeological analysis of buildings. A preliminary investigation was focused on an example of household architecture from the island of Rab (Croatia). The DEM was used for the interpretation of the origins of some architectural instabilities, caused by stratigraphic changes which occurred in the original building. The last case study was the rural church of S. Giusto in Marlia (LU), where DEM analysis gave a new interpretation about the archaeological evolution of this building. The procedure described in this paper is an innovative method for producing a faster and more accurate archaeological documentation and for giving a new archaeological tool for the stratigraphic interpretation of historical buildings

    This paper aims to analyze a characteristic typology of Medieval portals, with a widespread diffusion in the Medieval western Europe. Specifically, these portals are characterized by monolithic lintels with triangular or pentagonal shape, for which a systematic study in the academic literature is still missing. Depending on the geographical and the historical context, these portals have been variously interpreted: sometimes like Early Medieval elements, result of a systematic re-use of ancient material, or like a legacy of local building traditions which dates back to the Late Middle Ages. In the following work, after an introduction on the topic and a summary state of the research, with some methodological considerations, there is a census of all the portals identified through the systematic examination of the historical and archaeological literature, which allowed to identify the moment of their major expansion.The results and interpretations of this census were then compared with some case-studies on a local scale, which include both ecclesiastical and residential building, for which a reinterpretation of the traditional local chrono-typologies allowed to make some considerations about the relationship between high and medium building contractors

    This paper aims to focus on the problem between cultural heritage management and real knowledge of the historical buildings. Through an archaeological approach to the medieval landscape and to the medieval architectures of the Emilia Romagna region, this paper give a different interpretation about the origins of the Romanesque in the mountains of the Reggio Emilia district. In the most important plan of cultural heritage management these architectures are related to the supremacy of the Canossa family, one the most important medieval families northern Italy (Xth-XIth centuries). Actually, looking to the political history between XIth and XIIth centuries, it’s easier to explain the appearance of the Romanesque architecture as an attempt of the bishop of Reggio Emilia to display his power against the local aristocracies after the death of Matilde, last countess of Canossa
