SUMMARY The Amphitheater is located in the “heart” of the historic city center of Dürres (called Epidamnos by the Greeks and Dyrrachium by the Roman): Erected in the beginning of 2nd century AD, perhaps late period of Trajan (98 – 117 AD) or early period of Hadrian (117–138 AD) 1. It is one of the largest amphitheatres in the Balkans (8.600m2 approx.); two others are Salona and Pula (both in Croatia), its capacity was between 20000 and 26000 people. This monument, discovered in the sixties of last century, is the largest architectural monument discovered in Dürres and the only one of this type found so far in Albania. Undoubtedly, this is an important cultural and historical heritage building in urgent need of release conditions of buildings and urban infrastructure, archaeological excavation, consolidation, restoration, and together with the surrounding area and other close heritage buildings (for example the byzantine fortified walls), recovery and proper integration into the city.

  • The Contribution of Archaeologists to the Multi-Disciplinary Approach in Managerial Studies on Resilience: the Experiences of Sara Santoro1
    Athens Journal of Mediterranean Studies- Volume 5, Issue 4 – Pages 207-224 The Contribution of Archaeologists to the Multi-disciplinary Approach in Managerial Studies on Resilience: The Experiences of Sara Santoro1 By Massimo Bianchi* The paper wants to discuss the contribution of Archaeology to the multidisciplinary approach in managerial studies on resilience based on the experiences of Sara Santoro, a well-known archaeologist operating in Mediterranean countries and immaturely died. In recent years, the debate on the multidisciplinary approach in managerial sciences expanded due to the technological revolution and multicultural challenges. Another reason of this interest is the increasing attention of scholars to new fields of research and applicative purposes as the management of catastrophes, emergencies and resilience. A particular mention is to be attributed to the scientific and research activities of Sara Santoro, a well-known archaeologist in the Mediterranean area, who recently passed away. Because of the results obtained by this scientist as it concerns the recovering after catastrophic events with a multi-disciplinary approach, the paper aim is to discuss the content of this methodology. The following topics are analysed: the relevance of the survey on the land; the impact of no local staff on the theatre of catastrophic events; the recovering of communities’ cultural roots; the role of historical memory in the prevention and management of emergencies, and the management of small teams.1 Keywords: Archaeology, Multidisciplinary Approach, Interdisciplinary Approach, Resilience Management, Project Management. Introduction This article aims to expose and discuss the contribution of the humanities to the multidisciplinary approach in managerial studies on resilience based on the experiences of Sara Santoro, an illustrious archaeologist operating in Mediterranean countries and immaturely deceased.
