Europeana Archaeology

In November 8th 2019, in Rome, took place the meeting “Dalla Terra alla Carta: la pubblicazione archeologica in Italia” organised by the Confederazione Italiana Archeologi and hosted at the “Ex Cartiera Latina” (ex Latin Paper Mill), a symbolically suitable place for debating on this matter.
The focus of the meeting was the paper to be interpreted both as a publication, outcome of archaeological research hard to produce, and as support that, even if irreplaceable, must be necessarily be supported by digital: for example, the 3D reconstructions or the practices brought back to life by the experimental archaeology.

On this occasion, the Central Institute for the Union Catalogue of Italian Libraries and Bibliographic Information (ICCU), presented two projects deal with archaeology where the Institute is involved as partner: Europeana Archaeology and Ariadne Plus project.
