Comune Di S. Giovanni Incarico PROVINCIA DI FROSINONE
Comune di S. Giovanni Incarico PROVINCIA DI FROSINONE PIANO DI EMERGENZA DI PROTEZIONE CIVILE AGGIORNAMENTO DEL PIANO DI EMERGENZA COMUNALE DI PROTEZIONE CIVILE AI SENSI DELLA D.G.R.L. 363/2014 – 415/2015 RELAZIONE TECNICA Data, 30/11/2016 APPROVATO CON D.C.C. N° 27 DEL 02/12/2016 RESPONSABILE LAVORI PUBBLICI ARCH. ANNA MARIA CAMPAGNA PROFESSIONISTA INCARICATO ING. MASSIMO PATRIZI PREMESSA Il Piano Comunale di Emergenza di Protezione Civile, è stato elaborato con lo scopo di fornire al Comune uno strumento operativo utile a fronteggiare l’emergenza locale, conseguente al verificarsi di eventi naturali o connessi con l'attività dell'uomo; ci si riferisce ad eventi che per loro natura ed estensione possono essere contrastati mediante interventi attuabili autonomamente dal Comune, dalla Regione e della Provincia in quanto titolari dei Programmi di previsione e prevenzione. Il presente Piano di Emergenza, obbligatorio a norma di legge, è uno strumento a forte connotazione tecnica, fondato sulla conoscenza delle pericolosità e dei rischi che investono il territorio comunale e, nella prospettiva offerta dalla legislazione, esso trova una chiara collocazione tra gli strumenti che l’Ente ha a disposizione per la gestione dei rischi. Sulla base di scenari di riferimento, individua e disegna le diverse strategie finalizzate alla riduzione del danno ovvero al superamento dell'emergenza ed ha come finalità prioritaria la salvaguardia delle persone, dell’ambiente e dei beni presenti in un'area a rischio. Il Piano include quegli elementi informativi concernenti le condizioni di rischio locale che debbono essere recepite, e in alcuni casi risolte, dalla pianificazione territoriale. Nel caso di grosse calamità il Piano rappresenta lo strumento di primo intervento e di prima gestione dell’emergenza. -
Map 44 Latium-Campania Compiled by N
Map 44 Latium-Campania Compiled by N. Purcell, 1997 Introduction The landscape of central Italy has not been intrinsically stable. The steep slopes of the mountains have been deforested–several times in many cases–with consequent erosion; frane or avalanches remove large tracts of regolith, and doubly obliterate the archaeological record. In the valley-bottoms active streams have deposited and eroded successive layers of fill, sealing and destroying the evidence of settlement in many relatively favored niches. The more extensive lowlands have also seen substantial depositions of alluvial and colluvial material; the coasts have been exposed to erosion, aggradation and occasional tectonic deformation, or–spectacularly in the Bay of Naples– alternating collapse and re-elevation (“bradyseism”) at a staggeringly rapid pace. Earthquakes everywhere have accelerated the rate of change; vulcanicity in Campania has several times transformed substantial tracts of landscape beyond recognition–and reconstruction (thus no attempt is made here to re-create the contours of any of the sometimes very different forerunners of today’s Mt. Vesuvius). To this instability must be added the effect of intensive and continuous intervention by humanity. Episodes of depopulation in the Italian peninsula have arguably been neither prolonged nor pronounced within the timespan of the map and beyond. Even so, over the centuries the settlement pattern has been more than usually mutable, which has tended to obscure or damage the archaeological record. More archaeological evidence has emerged as modern urbanization spreads; but even more has been destroyed. What is available to the historical cartographer varies in quality from area to area in surprising ways. -

Men at Work: Public Construction, Labor, and Society at Middle Republican Rome, 390-168 B.C. Abstract MEN AT WORK: PUBLIC CONSTRUCTION, LABOR, AND SOCIETY AT MID-REPUBLICAN ROME, 390-168 B.C. Seth G. Bernard C. Brian Rose, Supervisor of Dissertation This dissertation investigates how Rome organized and paid for the considerable amount of labor that went into the physical transformation of the Middle Republican city. In particular, it considers the role played by the cost of public construction in the socioeconomic history of the period, here defined as 390 to 168 B.C. During the Middle Republic period, Rome expanded its dominion first over Italy and then over the Mediterranean. As it developed into the political and economic capital of its world, the city itself went through transformative change, recognizable in a great deal of new public infrastructure. -
The Roman Army's Emergence from Its Italian Origins

Chapel Hill 2012 Approved by: Richard Talbert Nathan Rosenstein Daniel Gargola Fred Naiden Wayne Lee ABSTRACT PATRICK ALAN KENT: The Roman Army’s Emergence from its Italian Origins (Under the direction of Prof. Richard Talbert) Roman armies in the 4 th century and earlier resembled other Italian armies of the day. By using what limited sources are available concerning early Italian warfare, it is possible to reinterpret the history of the Republic through the changing relationship of the Romans and their Italian allies. An important aspect of early Italian warfare was military cooperation, facilitated by overlapping bonds of formal and informal relationships between communities and individuals. However, there was little in the way of organized allied contingents. Over the 3 rd century and culminating in the Second Punic War, the Romans organized their Italian allies into large conglomerate units that were placed under Roman officers. At the same time, the Romans generally took more direct control of the military resources of their allies as idea of military obligation developed. The integration and subordination of the Italians under increasing Roman domination fundamentally altered their relationships. In the 2 nd century the result was a growing feeling of discontent among the Italians with their position. -
1 Duae Patriae
Cambridge University Press 978-0-521-86331-5 - Ethnic Identity and Aristocratic Competition in Republican Rome Gary D. Farney Excerpt More information 1 duae patriae ᨠᨘᨠ 1. Partners in Empire “Because the Romans mixed with themselves Etruscans, Latins, and Sabines and regard there to be one blood from all of these, they have made one body from these various parts and one people composed of 1 all of them.” In this way, the second-century a.d. Roman historian Florus describes the traditional ethnic composition of Rome at the beginning of his chapter on the Social War, Rome’s war with its Italian allies which began in 91 b.c. Although he would judge the actions of the rebels to be criminal, he goes on to criticize Rome for not sharing 2 the citizenship with the deserving peoples of Italy sooner. After all, as a contemporary of Florus would echo in his history, the Italian upper classes had only led the revolt because they had desired to be “partners 3 in empire instead of subjects.” Implicit within these comments is that the Latins, Sabines, and Etruscans had dared to hope this before and had succeeded, and now they were the dominant groups within the Roman state. Their dominance, however, seemed to exclude men from dozens of other groups from a place in the state, notably Rome’s allies that had exerted so much on its behalf. 1 Epit. 2.6.1: quippe cum populus Romanus Etruscos, Latinos Sabinosque sibi miscuerit et unum ex omnibus sanguinem ducat, corpus fecit ex membris et ex omnibus unus est. -

POLYBIUS and LIVY on the ALLIES in the ROMAN ARMY Paul Erdkamp* from the Fourth Or Third Century Until the Beginning of the Firs
POLYBIUS AND LIVY ON THE ALLIES IN THE ROMAN ARMY Paul Erdkamp* From the fourth or third century until the beginning of the rst century bc, Rome’s armies were also the armies of her allies. The socii and nomen Latinum raised at least half of the soldiers that fought wars for Rome. The Italic allies were clearly distinguished from the non-Italic troops, such as Cretan archers or Numidian horsemen, by the fact that they were governed by the formula togatorum. This can be concluded from their ‘de nition’ in the lex agraria from 111 bc: socii nominisve Latini quibus ex formula togatorum milites in terra Italia imperare solent. The formula togatorum is seen as a de ning element, distinguishing the Latin and Italic peoples from Rome’s overseas allies. Although in the second century bc a con- sciousness of Italy as a political and cultural unity gradually emerged, it was still referred to as a military alliance of Roman citizens and allies at the end of that century.1 The beginnings of this system remain in the dark, due to the inadequacies of our sources. The foedus Cassianum between Rome and the Latin League (traditionally dated to 493 bc) supposedly established a federal army under Roman command, but next to nothing is known about its functioning. The participation of the allied peoples was based on the treaties between their communities and Rome. The position of the Latin colonies was slightly different, because their obligations were probably based on the lex coloniae governing each Latin colony.2 We may assume that the role of the allies was re-de ned * I wish to thank John Rich, Luuk de Ligt and Simon Northwood for their many valuable comments. -
Lazio (Latium) Is a Region of Traditions, Culture and Flavours
Lazio (Latium) is a Region of traditions, culture and flavours. A land that knows how to delight the visitor at any time of the year, thanks to its kaleidoscope of landscape and stunning scenery, ranging from the sea to the mountains, united by a common de- nominator: beauty. The beauty you will find, beside the Eternal City, in Tuscia, Sabina, Aniene and Tiber Valley and along the Ro- man Hills, without forgetting the Prenestine and Lepini mountains, the Ciociaria and the Riviera of Ulysses and Aeneas coasts with the Pontine islands. The main City is, obvi- ously Rome, the Eternal City, with its 28 hundred years, so reach of history and cul- ture, but, before the rise of Rome as a mili- tary and cultural power, the Region was already called Latium by its inhabitants. Starting from the north west there are three distinct mountain ranges, the Volsini, the Cimini and the Sabatini, whose volcanic origin can be evinced by the presence of large lakes, like Bolsena, Vico and Bracciano lake, and, the Alban Hills, with the lakes of Albano and Nemi, sharing the same volcanic origins. A treasure chest concealing a profu- sion of art and culture, genuine local prod- ucts, delicious foods and wine and countless marvels. Rome the Eternal City, erected upon seven hills on April 21st 753 BC (the date is sym- bolic) according to the myth by Romulus (story of Romulus and Remus, twins who were suckled by a she-wolf as infants in the 8th century BC. ) After the legendary foundation by Romulus,[23] Rome was ruled for a period of 244 years by a monarchical system, ini- tially with sovereigns of Latin and Sabine origin, later by Etruscan kings. -

Interamna Lirenas and Its Territory Through Antiquity
This paper has been peer-reviewed and will also be published in J. Pelgrom and T. Stek (edd.), Roman Republican Colonisation: new perspectives from archaeology and ancient history. J. of Roman Archaeology, Supplementary Series, Portsmouth, RI. ROMAN COLONIAL LANDSCAPES: INTERAMNA LIRENAS AND ITS TERRITORY THROUGH ANTIQUITY ποταμοῖσι τοῖσιν αὐτοῖσιν ἐμβαίνουσιν ἕτερα καὶ ἕτερα ὕδατα ἐπιρρεῖ to those who step in same rivers ever different waters flow (Heraclitus, DK22b12) INTRODUCTION Archaeological research is constantly evolving. This is true not just of methodology, but also – perhaps especially – of the questions methodologies address. Archaeological survey in Italy developed from the awareness that ancient remains scattered across the landscape were being threatened with significant destruction with the spectacular growth of urbanization.1 Field-survey was the best way to record vanishing ancient settlement patterns. However, the amount of evidence collected has far exceeded its scope in both quantity and quality and, even in the initial stages, it was obvious that this new ‘ploughsoil assemblage’ had the potential to address wider archaeological and historical questions (e.g. Frederiksen 1970-71). Pioneering work was done in the South Etruria Survey organized by the British School at Rome (BSR), which paved the way for many more survey projects in Italy.2 Landscape archaeology, which is actively engaged with other disciplines (e.g. the natural sciences) and with ‘new’ technologies (e.g. GIS, geophysical prospection), has since become a fully established discipline and is making an essential contribution to illuminating the development of people and places throughout the Mediterranean.3 The questions the surveyors have raised have evolved with the development in its method.
