Ricerche e studi ad Altino e nei Musei archeologici del Veneto

Abstract

The collection of sculpture of the Archaeological Museum of Verona includes a large quantity of material which has not been published or has not been adequately studied. Hence, a study campaign has been planned to record about 120 pieces of sculpture (statues, portraits, various types of relief, votive altars) whose documentation is either completely lacking, or is insufficient for the standards of a modern scientific catalogue. The catalogue will be published in summer 2018. Between 2012 and 2015, Ca’ Foscari University of Venice conducted two intensive survey campaigns in an area close to the urban center of the Roman city of Altinum. The survey has mapped the ancient structures and has been followed by the inventory and the study of the of the finds, now being published by the students involved in the activities.
