APM - Archeologia Postmedievale, 19, 2015 - Gran Bretagna e Italia tra Mediterraneo e Atlantico: Livorno – ‘un porto inglese’ / Italy and Britain between Mediterranean and Atlantic worlds: Leghorn – ‘an English port’
Livorno fu una creazione postmedievale di notevole successo. Diventò il più grande porto di transito del Mediterraneo e creò il concetto di porto franco in Europa. Costruita dai Granduchi Medici, prosperò come la più importante base commerciale nel Mediterraneo per i Poteri nord-atlantici. Tra questi il principale fu inglese, la cui Royal Navy garantì il suo successo commerciale e il predominio britannico nel Mediterraneo – un’area che era ancora la fonte di prodotti e beni di lusso e che forniva un mercato popoloso per le manifatture, i metalli, il pesce, le riesportazioni coloniali ed i servizi di trasporto inglesi. Questo volume raccoglie quattordici contributi che danno prove m...
Italian Historical Rural Landscapes
Sustainable development and rural policies have pursued strategies where farming has been often regarded as a factor deteriorating the ecosystem. But the current economic, social and environmental problems of the Earth probably call for examples of a positive integration between human society and nature. This research work presents more than a hundred case studies where the historical relationships between man and nature have generated, not deterioration, but cultural, environmental, social and economic values. The results show that is not only the economic face of globalization that is negatively affecting the landscape, but also inappropriate environmental policies. The CBD-UNESCO program on biocultural diversity, the FAO Globally Important Agricultural Heritage Systems and several projects of the International Union of Forest Research Organizations, as well as European rural policies acknowledge the importance of cultural values associated to landscape. This research intends to support these efforts.
APM - Archeologia Postmedievale, 18, 2014 - Archeologia dei relitti postmedievali / Archaeology of Post-Medieval Shipwrecks
Archeologia dei relitti postmedievali / Archaeology of Post-Medieval Shipwrecks, a cura di Carlo Beltrame Il volume, che raccoglie undici contributi di archeologi marittimi di molti paesi, ha l’obiettivo di accendere i riflettori sulle enormi potenzialità dei relitti di età storica, mettendo a confronto, da un lato, approcci diversi (di ambito mediterraneo ma anche statunitense, australiano e nord europeo), dall’altro, contesti archeologici con caratteristiche altrettanto diverse per l’ambiente di giacitura e per l’impiego civile o militare dell’imbarcazione. Gli studi, diacronici ma incentrati sul Cinquecento e sull’Ottocento, coprono le varie sfaccettature dell’indagine storica dei relitti di età postmedievale quali la costruzione navale, il commercio e la vita di bordo, ma anche aspetti di tipo squisitamente metodologico quali l’archeologia sperimentale navale. Si tratta di una novità assoluta per l’editoria scientifica italiana in cui questo particolare, ma molto promettente, ambito della ricerca archeologica non aveva ancora trovato adeguato spazio.
Mediterranean Coastal Lagoons
"The Mediterranean region hosts around 400 coastal lagoons, covering a surface of over 641 000 ha differing in both their typology and use. Fisheries and various forms of aquaculture have been traditionally carried out in Mediterranean coastal lagoons since ancient times and are part of the cultural heritage of the region. Traditional lagoon management linked to extensive aquaculture and fish harvesting has certainly contributed, over time, to preserve these peculiar ecosystems, although much of the coastal lagoon areas have progressively disappeared due to land reclamation and other uses. Recently, coastal lagoons have become a relevant environmental concern: land claiming, pollution and th...

Le sepolture aristocratiche della sacrestia di San Domenico Maggiore a Napoli (secoli XV-XVIII)
La paleopatologia è la scienza che studia le malattie del passato tramite l’esame diretto dei resti umani antichi, scheletrici o mummificati. In questi ultimi anni la paleopatologia è divenuta una disciplina autonoma e altamente specializzata, facente parte del grande gruppo delle scienze mediche, con forti connotati di interdisciplinarietà. Infatti, pur continuando a basarsi sull’anatomia patologica, si avvale anche di contributi di discipline diverse, come la storia, l’archeologia e l’antropologia fisica ma, in base alle fonti storico-letterarie, si interfaccia con la storia della medicina, ricostruendo la patocenosi delle popolazioni del passato (il concetto di patocenosi è do...
APM – Archeologia Postmedievale, 28, 2024
In continuation of a consolidated tradition of this publication, issue number 28 (2024) presents innovative aspects, like an increase in the internationalization which is represented by the essays on important underwater and land sites in Saudi Arabia (the Red Sea), Albania (Durrës) and Spain (Roses-Catalogna) and state-of-the-art methodological themes concerning the protection of the post-Medieval archeological heritage. This issue of APM contains innovations related to geographical areas which are dealt with here for the first time, but also for certain subjects like the archeology of post-Medieval transhumance, the archeology of the air, 14C applied to post-medieval finds, an 18th centur...
