The development of realistic numerical models able to replicate as closely as pos- sible the actual structural behaviour of heritage buildings is crucial for a thorough assess- ment of their structural performance against exceptional scenarios. In this regard, higher accuracy can be achieved by leveraging a multidisciplinary approach that integrates multiple contributions from different fields, such as geomatics, dynamics and computational modelling. In the present paper, this strategy is applied to the tower keep of the Guimarães castle, in Portugal, a masonry fortified structure dating back to the X century. Starting from an accu- rate laser scanner survey, a detailed numerical model has been created resorting to efficient algorithms able to represent complex situations. Furthermore, by exploiting the dynamic 2310 /-6iQFKH]$SDULFLR0*0DVFLRWWD'3HOOHJULQL%&RQGH0*LUDUGL&3DGRYDQL /)5DPRV%5LYHLUR properties extracted from the processing of vibration data collected during field dynamic test- ing, the mechanical characteristics of the constituent materials of the tower have been esti- mated by means of a model updating technique embedded in a trust-region scheme implemented in the NOSA-ITACA code. The results obtained so far allowed to establish valu- able baseline information that will be of pivotal importance to catch possible changes in the tower’s response and to perform more in-depth structural analyses. 1 INTRODUCTION +HULWDJHVWUXFWXUHVUHSUHVHQWDVLJQLILFDQWSDUWRIRXUEXLOWHQYLURQPHQW%HVLGHVWKHLUFXO

Sonnessa Survey Lab srl – Università di Roma La Sapienza, Roma, Italy ABSTRACT: The present work is focused on the preliminary results obtained through the geomatic integrat- ed monitoring system currently running at the test site of the Basilica of Maxentius in the Roman Forum. The system is aimed at controlling a number of archaeological sites which can be potentially affected by the tun- neling works for a new metro line which is presently under construction. It includes different high precision geomatic sensors controlled by a centralized control station which continuously acquire data at high frequen- cy. In order to identify a reliable processing procedure and assess the quality of the collected data, we started to develop and experiment a preliminary analysis of the data collected in the first period of the system opera- tion (before the start of the excavation works). This activity allowed us to assess the performance of each sen- sor, focusing on the capability of the system to control also the stability of the monitoring stations. The ob- tained results will be adopted to better define an automated procedure for future massive data processing. 1 INTRODUCTION The effects of the underground construction works in urban areas represent a threat for the stability of the overlying buildings and structures.

This book sums up briefly the results of researches, extending over many years, in regard to the fate of the buildings and masterpieces of art in ancient Rome. In his work upon this subject and upon his large map Professor Lanciani has searched hundreds of volumes of municipal and ecclesiastical records, besides examining several thousand separate documents ; and he has ran- sacked the principal libraries of Europe for prints and drawings showing the remains of ancient Rome at differ- ent periods. Much of the new material thus collected will appear in fuller form in an extensive work, compris- ing several volumes, which will be published in Italian under the title Storia degli Scavi di Roma. The present volume is a forerunner of the larger work.

A Topography of Death: the buildings of the emperor Maxentius on the Via Appia, Rome Lorraine Kerr Introduction It has often been noted that the circus of Maxentius, part of a complex of buildings erected by that emperor on the Via Appia beh-veen AD 306-12, is curiously positioned relative to contemporary and pre-existing structures. This feature, and the generally cramped nature of the site, is usually explained in terms of restrictions imposed by the natural topography of the area (e.g., D' Alessio 1998: 17; Ioppolo 1999: 45-46).1 However, a recent visit to the complex suggested that the orientation of the circus was not controlled exclusively by topographic factors, but also by the location of an important pre-existing tomb built in the immediate area, which is here argued to have been purposely integrated into the Maxentian architectural scheme.

Non è uno spazio come gli altri, un’area funzionale all’uso che se ne fa. Una risorsa da sfruttare per spremerne ricavi. E’ un punto di incontro, una piazza pubblica, un luogo reale e simbolico allo stesso tempo. Un rito ancestrale che ha attraversato la storia e raggiunto gli angoli più remoti del mondo, come porta di comunicazione e di scambio tra i popoli. Un mercato è una delle ultime dimensioni del passato che la macchina del tempo ha traghettato fino a noi, generazione dopo generazione. Un luogo che dovrebbe essere il cuore pulsante della vita dei quartieri, e che invece è sempre più assediato dalla modernità consumistica, avida di trasformare in profitto tutto quello che arriva a toccare, e pazienza se se ne uccide l’anima. E infatti al posto dei mercati si assite alla moltiplicazione dei centri commerciali, luoghi anonimi per gente anonima, fatti di sequenze di Intimissimi-Benetton-Calzedonia, vetrine seriali da guardare senza curiosità. Spazi più simili alla passività televisiva che alla realtà dove si vive da protagonisti, luoghi di solitudini moltiplicate e disperse, in una città che non è più fatta per le donne e gli uomini, ma solo per utenti, target, clienti.

  • Roman Archaeology in Medieval Rome Caroline J. Goodson The
    Roman Archaeology in Medieval Rome Caroline J. Goodson The image of Rome is so often a vision of ruins, crumbling romantically or standing proud against a Mediterranean sky. The ruins of antiquity, whether the rustic tufo of Republican walls and temples or the red brick and white marble of the imperial buildings, attract most attention from modern visitors. Like modern tourists, medieval visitors to the city admired Rome's antiquities and explored the ruins. Very recent archaeological research has cast light on the history of these monuments in the Middle Ages, which allows us to better reconstruct the cityscape of Rome in the seventh, eighth or ninth centuries. In the Middle Ages, the material remains of antiquity were indices for medieval attitudes and ambitions for their present. On the one hand, the roads, walls, aqueducts and buildings of ancient Rome provided a frame and a model for monumental urbanistic expression in the Middle Ages. On the other hand, the legacy of Rome's Christian past lent the medieval city and its builders ultimate prestige in the crafting of the city around the cult of saints. Close attention to the material culture of early medieval Rome brings into focus the significance of ancient artefacts in the building of the medieval city and the medieval idea of the city itself. What follows is an attempt to point out two different yet related roles of ancient archaeology in medieval Rome: as models of architectural canons and the politics of architecture and as potent pathways to the sacred past. These two roles of archaeology in the medieval city diverge from the conventionally understood significance of ancient materials in the Middle Ages, as revival or Classicism, and in better understanding the uses of the past in the medieval Rome we can better understand the sophisticated constructions of authority and power which focused on it.

    Progetto didattico visita guidata Le Mura Aureliane Visita didattica organizzata secondo tre differenti percorsi a scelta della scuola: 1- Riuso, restauro, ricostruzione: il tratto di Mura tra Porta Maggiore e Castro Pretorio 2- Tra Porta Asinaria e Porta Maggiore: Eurisace, Elena, Costantino, San Giovanni: pagani e cristiani lungo le Mura Aureliane 3- Dalla Porta Raudusculana alla porta Ostiense: passeggiata attraverso il quartiere Aventino Dove: Mura aureliane (appuntamenti a seconda dell’itinerario) Destinatari: scuola primaria, scuola secondaria di I e II grado Descrizione e svolgimento del percorso: I tre itinerari proposti, oltre a mostrare diversi tratti della cinta muraria voluta da Aureliano, mirano a focalizzare l’attenzione su alcuni aspetti specifici legati alla storia delle Mura, diversi per ogni itinerario: 1. Riuso, restauro, ricostruzione: il tratto di Mura tra Porta Maggiore e Castro Pretorio: l’itinerario evidenzierà, oltre alla storia e alle caratteristiche del sistema difensivo, il rapporto che le Mura hanno stabilito con le realtà preesistenti (acquedotti, strade, sepolcri). Particolarmente interessante, anche perché poco conosciuto, il tratto che da Porta Maggiore conduce a Porta Tiburtina, anche in questo caso eretta per far scavalcare alla Via Tiburtina gli acquedotti (Acqua Marcia, Tepula e Iulia) in epoca augustea. Appuntamento in Piazza S. Croce in Gerusalemme davanti alla Basilica Itinerario: S.Croce in Gerusalemme, Porta maggiore, Tomba di Eurisace, Acquedotti, Viale dello Scalo San Lorenzo, Via di Porta Labicana, Piazzale Tiburtino, Via di Porta Tiburtina, Piazzale Sisto V, Viale Pretoriano, Viale Castro Pretorio 2. Tra Porta Asinaria e Porta Maggiore: Eurisace, Elena, Costantino, San Giovanni: pagani e cristiani lungo le Mura Aureliane L’itinerario si sviluppa lungo il tratto di Mura Aureliane compreso tra Porta Asinaria e Porta Maggiore, in una delle zone di Roma più segnate dalle trasformazioni di epoca costantiniana, prescelta per trattare il tema del passaggio tra la Roma pagana e la Roma cristiana.

  • The Story of Rome Digna Locus Roma Est Quo Deus Omnis Eat
    The Story of Rome Digna locus Roma est quo Deus omnis eat. Ovid. Ail rights reserved .^•-' V '^K*/ 1 fefe^BBQEIMGtBWfflSlIM <;s*///S//> Kac The Story of ROME by Norwood Young Illustrated by Nelly Erich<sen London: / M. I hilt CT Co. Aldine House, 29 and 30 Bedford Street Covent Garden W.C. * * 1901 1) i'v PREFACE THE story of Rome covers an area so vast that it would be pedantic on my part to apologise for the omissions which will be observed on every page of this little book. It is, of necessity, an abridgment of the work of many authors and many volumes. The small space at my disposal has made it impossible to add to the story of Christianity in Rome any adequate consideration of Roman churches, museums and ruins. I have devoted one chapter, the second, to a slight sketch of the remains lying in the neighbourhood of the Colosseum and Forum Romanum, and I have mentioned the more important of the recent sensational discoveries, but it is too early yet to dogmatise as to their exact significance. Ex- cavation is still being keenly pursued, and new finds may at any moment negative the opinions already formed. Such other topographical references as the book contains will be found in the last chapter, and in the Appendix, which has a few practical suggestions as to hotels, etc., an itinerary for the hurried visitor, a short list of books, and a very brief statement of the more interesting objects to be found in some of the most important churches.

  • San Giovanni in Laterano
    (003/29) San Giovanni in Laterano St. John at the Lateran Piazza di San Giovanni Laterano (003/29) The official name is Archbasilica of the Most Holy Saviour and Sts. John the Baptist and the Evangelist at the Lateran, Cathedral of Rome, Mother and Head of all churches (003/29) History: On the façade, an inscription proclaims that this is SACROSANCTA LATERANENSIS ECCLESIA OMNIUM URBIS ET ORBIS ECCLESIARUM MATER ET CAPUT, "The Most Holy Lateran Church, Mother and Mistress of all churches of the city and the World". It is the first cathedral of Rome, where Emperor Constantine allowed the Pope to set up the episcopal chair after 312. The first mention in ancient sources is from 313, when a consistory of bishops was held in domum Faustae in Laterano. This refers to Fausta, Constantine's second wife, who was a convert. It is the first church not only in Rome but in the Christian world. The Popes lived in the Lateran palace until Clement V (1305-1314) transferred the papal seat to Avignon. After the return of the Pope to Rome in 1377, the Vatican palace was chosen as the papal residence. In this area, once stood a palace belonged to the Laterani family. Their house stood near the Basilica, probably towards the current Via Amba Aradam, and covered the entire land area that also includes the current basilica area. According to the "Annals" of Tacitus in 65 A.D. the palace and land was confiscated by the Emperor Nero, as Plautius Lateran, appointed consul for the year 65, conspired against the emperor himself in the conspiracy called the "Pisoni".
