| Journal Description : | The editorial project is the outcome of a long-term common research experience on archaeological topics and contexts pertaining to ancient Italy, Greece and, in general, the Mediterranean basin. Furthermore, it is based on the previous shared editorial projects, promoted by the founders of this initiative, who are architects and archeologists united by in-field experiences, that turned out to be decisive for the adoption of a methodology open to debate and aware of the importance of a multi-disciplinarian approach. These common experiences, especially in Greece, during the long period spent in the Italian Archaeological School at Athens, resulted in the awareness of the need to foster the cooperation between archaeologists and architects as well as to integrate different competences, with the aim of ensuring an overall understanding of the ancient world.
A crucial role in the definition of the project was played by the needs emerged throughout these years of academic teachings, working with young students who are starting their research activities and who are asking for information materials that are both updated and easily accessible as well as a space of scientific communication.
Taking into account this aspect, the participation of researchers, professors of Italian and foreign Universities, of institutions connected to promotion and valorization of cultural heritage, or independent scholars, willing to establish a network able to concretely go beyond the divisions and fragmentations existing within the traditional system of publication. |
