The Project PILAE, For an Inventory of the Submerged Roman Piers. A Preliminary Overview

Journal Title: International Journal of Environment and Geoinformatics - Year 2015, Vol 2, Issue 3

Abstract

In the coastal territories between northern Tuscany and southern Campania, on the Tyrrhenian Sea, constitute a privileged observation post for any study on the port facilities in the Roman time. Along these shores, in fact, there is an amazing concentration of ancient remains connected to port infrastructures, often not very far from the modern cities, and in many cases still recognizable beneath the sea or near it, despite the big changes suffered by the Italian coastal landscape over the past two millennia.
