  Il Laterizio nei cantieri imperiali — Roma ed il Mediterraneo

  Questo workshop intende promuovere il dibattito, su scala mediterranea, intorno al materiale di costruzione emblematico dell’architettura antica. Si tratterà in particolare di osservare come il laterizio abbia servito il potere imperiale, come abbia partecipato all’innovazione e alla trasmissione del sapere tecnico romano, come abbia influenzato e determinato l’organizzazione dei cantieri imperiali, com’è stato prodotto e diffuso attraverso l’Impero ed infine, come si è integrato nei processi di romanizzazione.

  The archaeology of early maritime navigation

  Comparative approaches to the western Mediterranean and the English Channel / North Sea

  L’archéologie de la navigation maritime affiche un dynamisme sans précédent depuis quelques années. En Méditerranée, sur les bords de la Manche et de la mer du Nord, des découvertes exceptionnelles attestent désormais les voyages à travers les mers d’Europe. Les archéologues connaissaient depuis longtemps la réalité des déplacements des hommes, des biens et des idées par voie maritime depuis des époques très anciennes. Cette rencontre sera l’occasion de faire le point sur les résultats obtenus, les acquis historiques et les nouvelles perspectives de recherche, mais il s’agira également d’aborder des questions de méthodologie dans ce type de recherche et notamment la définition des protocoles, l’apport de l’archéologie expérimentale et les modes de valorisation.
