The project aims to join resources and different skills to tackle each possible aspect connected with "non-destructive" approaches to understand and reconstruct complex archaeological sites. The consortium of 7 partners has chosen an "open laboratory for research and experimentation" in and around the abandoned Roman site of Ammaia in central Portugal, but some research activities are carried out by the partner institutions in different areas of the Mediterranean and continental Europe. This paper describes the various methods and procedures which were used to undertake the three dimensional reconstruction of this Roman urban site in Lusitania.

And it is forbiden to use ideas from proposal without Ambassadors permissions.

On the end of February 2018 the list of ambassadors count 61 ambassadors from 31 countries.
On the end of August 2019 the list of ambassadors count 97 individual and 21 official institutional Ambassadors from 48 countries from all global continents.
On the end of January 2020 the list of ambassadors count 110 individual and 32 official institutional Ambassadors from 53 countries from all continents.

The findings of prehistoric vessels (e.g. EarlyWatercraft), logboats and dugout canoes as the oldest evidence (logboat from Pesse, Netherland) as the other forms of watercraft (reed-, skin-, bark- boats, rafts, etc.) all over the world mark the beginning of shipbuilding and transportation traditions and in the sense of far-reaching significance as well as navigation, mobility, orientation, networking, conquering, colonisation, travelling and consequently also the other inventions. Anthropological theory, however, even without the aid of real finds is widely accepted and claims that the watercraft began to be in use for at least 60k years, and some of them even state’ that watercraft has been used even by Homo erectus from 800k years ago.

This great story of transportation on water, which is closely linked to man’s traditional coexistence with water and his life in aquatic environments has a strong symbolic meaning since the vast majority of humanity lives near the seas, lakes and rivers. In the general story of shipping traditions, shipbuilding and watercraft typology in the framework of world heritage, the simple prehistoric vessels or Early Watercraft have not been paid enough attention so far, although they definitely deserve it, as they represent the origins of the mankind’s navigational tradition.
