Tucci and Swāt, Seventy Years Later
The book presents the 1978 second edition of La Via dello Swat
because it offers Tucci’s very first impressions and it includes his evaluation
of the first 20 years of excavations; for the illustrative material,
instead, we preferred the photos Tucci had chosen for the first
edition in 1963.
Tucci’s text is followed by a substantial article by L.M. Olivieri that illustrates
all that has become known through seventy years of continuous excavation
by the Italian Archaeological Mission.
This volume is published in the occasion of the 70th anniversary of the Italian Archaeological Mission in Pakistan founded by Giuseppe Tucci in 1955

Digging Up Fieldwork guidelines for archaeology students 2nd Revised Edition
While most field manuals begin with abstract theoretical propositions,
to move tackling with pratical issues (such as the organization
of the archaeological yard) as these latter were secondary,
menial aspects, the approach of Luca M. Olivieri goes the other
way round. Following the first pages of this book, students will
learn to appreciate the advantages of a straight, rational organization
of the trench, including issues that are regularly neglected
in other books of the same type – like the composition of the excavating
teams, the location and maintenance of the excavation
dirt, the control of the water running on surface and across the
exposed ruins. A clear historical understanding – the Author
seems to suggest – depends also upon a neat setting, since the first
steps, of an archaeologist’s experimental workbench.
Another crucial aspect of this text is its practical vision. While
condemning without any ambiguity the criminal destruction of
Swat’s archaeological heritage by illegal diggers, as the careless
planning of agricultural works and modern construction across
important archaeological sites, Olivieri is aware of the fact that
the recent impact - even in form of exposed sections – sometimes
may be utilized as possible windows to the past. It is a generous
effort to create order and information even from what, too often,
is turning into a depressing chaos.
The Author leads student to a proper planning of surface surveys
(in the peculiar situation of mountain slopes), to an exhaustive planning of the dig, considering also legal frameworks and budgeting,
the inventorying of the finds, to restoration and site maintenance.
Readers are invited to view the contents of this book as an evolution,
but also as an important change, of the methods and the theoretical
background of Mortimer’s Wheeler’s fieldschool. This
change involves a shift from a strongly hierarchical management
of the yard to participation and shared discussion, but also to a
more detailed documentation of stratigraphy and, as a consequence,
to more critical historical interpretations; from stratigraphic
limits conceived as lines that separate “historical periods” to tools for reconstructing the formation processes of
the site. (from the Foreword, by G. Leonardi
