The Glyptography assists the studies above the craftsmen related to their way to be associated. The Saida sea-castle of Qala’at al-Bahr was erected during the Crusade period, by a group of pilgrim builders from France, England and Spain. The structures of the castle are plenty of blockstone marks, most of these are piecerates marks, with recurring signs. This case-study, also considering the particular construction techniques of bugnato style, could be a reference point for the Crusade archaeology. The quality of the great number of marks confirms the thesis above the nature of land occupation by crusaders. It took place by not only monks, soldiers or merchants, but also by groups of builders, which stabilized at least for the last of construction.

Introducing a personal experience, the author argues the main projects which have affected the historical compounds in Shanghai during the last twenty years, with particular reference to the Shikumen block (typical housing since the urban expansion in the late XIX century). The building in Shikumen style, characterized by terraced houses with high population density and inhabited by lower working classes until today, behind the name of restoration has been replaced with low population density building addressed to reach people, as gentrification strategy. Constructions are quite often rebuilt in the same style with a particular mix of invention and anastilosi or new parts in contemporary style.

La fitta densità di case a schiera tipica dei quartieri operai occidentali è qui replicata in isolati omogenei e compatti, che prendono luce dal microtessuto generato dall'alternarsi di lanes (vicoli interni, longtang) e di corti centrali, mutuate dalla tradizione cinese. L'edificato è costituito da strutture in muratura di mattoni arricchite esternamente, come gli ingressi alla lane, da portali in pietra decorati in stile ecclettico; l'interno conserva maggiormente una mediazione con l'abitare tradizionale attraverso strutture ed impalcati interamente lignei.

Sardinia is considered stable since the late Pliocene with a negligible subsidence of about 0.01 mm/y. It is therefore normally used to reconstruct the Pleistocene and Holocene sea level curves. Our research focusses on the sea-facing city of Alghero that from 1353 to 1720 was under the Spanish government. During this time, the city was renovated and new buildings edified. Dimension stones were quarried all around Alghero both in the nearby inland and along the coast. Coastal quarries were considered the most suitable for both rock quality and the easiest way to transport the quarried material by boat. The quarried rocks are late Pleistocene dune and beach sandstones deposited from the 132 ka (Marine Isotopic Stage—MIS5) to about 65 ka (MIS4). Sandstones crop out from few cm to 3 m above the present sea level and underwent several consolidation processes related to loading and marine weathering. This latter ...
