In this plan we articulate a methotodological frame that include analysis techniques from different disciplines: Archaeology, Architecture, Anthropology and Psychology (stratigraphical analysis, formal analysis, perception analysis). This is the theoretical and methodological frame of the Archaeotecture. The second part includes a example of this kind of analysis, which is integrated into a major project about Heritage Management of a hillfort in North West of Spain: the Castro of Elviña (A Coruña, Galicia). Our archaeological research unit and A Coruña Council contracted for develop a Director Plan which put the basis to build an archaeological park in this site. The planning included several works among whose was the study of architectonical record. In this context we make a formal analysis of several domestic buildings and a stratigraphical analysis of one of them. At this point our research allow us know the evolution of domestic space and changes in social patterns from Iron Age until Romanization. In the same way this work give us a rich information about architecture that was used for a CAD reconstruction of the major house dirt in the site. This study not only contribute to identify the different constructive periods but also to design an architectonical reconstruction of an Iron Age dwelling into the future archaeological park.

Archaeotecture: Archaeology of Architecture is a compilation of the majority of the papers presented during these sessions, organised according to their subjects or the chronological periods they cover. All of them share a common factor: the study of constructions and architectonic spaces, analysed from an from an archaeological perspective

Infelizmente, a maioria destes estabelecimentos foram destruídos ou grandemente danificados durante o renascimento do termalismo europeu, nos séculos XIX e primeira metade do XX da nossa era e, de entre os poucos que escaparam a este destino, só um punhado deles foram objecto de intervenções arqueológicas recentes. Em 2006, na sequência do projecto de construção de um parque de estacionamento subterrâneo no Largo do Arrabalde em Chaves, cujas sondagens arqueológicas prévias haviam detectado a presença de estruturas monumentais de época romana (Silva et al. 2007), deu-se início à escavação arqueológica do Balneário termal romano de Aquae Flaviae, com vista ao seu estudo e valorização.

Most of these were recovered in stratigraphic units sealed by the brick barrel vault collapse in last decade of the 4th century AD.
The waterlogged material studied, included several types of archaeobotanical remains: timber used for construction (beams, poles, boards and wedges), wooden objects (combs, bowls and containers, corks, handles, spindle whorls, etc.) and macro carpological remains (seeds, fruits, pine scales and cones, etc.). The study of the wood assemblage was focused ﬁrstly on the identiﬁcation of the material selected for woodworking and also on providing answers regarding the technical and technological features used in manufacturing these items. Regarding fruits and seeds, the analysis was oriented towards macro remains species identiﬁcation. A selection of species for speciﬁc purposes was clearly identiﬁed both in timber pieces and in several types of objects as well as the carving of speciﬁc features in these pieces according to its function. Active management of wood resources could also be inferred. Furthermore, relevant information was gatheredconcerning the presence of Pinus pinea, Castanea sativa, Buxus sempervirens and several species of the Prunus family, which show great importance on a regional or supra regional levels. The ﬁrst presence of cypress tree (Cupressus sempervirens) during Roman times in western Iberia was also identiﬁed.

A lot of theses subjects were hardly studied from traditional Archaeology. In this way, for example, architectural remains only were analysed starting from a formalist and typological approach, although its importance as material reflection of social processes. Today the need has been imposed to widen the perspectives of investigation, assimilating new lines which make it possible to maximise the information which comes from te constructed space. This need is justified by questions such as the inconsistency of studying the architectonic record, and overcoming the investigative tradition which even defended the impossibility of dealing with a social and integral interpretation of this record. Despite these conditioning factors, alternative studies and analytical instruments were developed recently in a new field of research, designed Architectural Archaeology. This discipline embrace different methodolgies: Formal analysis or primitive architecture; the study of vertical stratigraphy, particulary used in the studi of Mediaeval sites; the functional and symbolic analysis shich recognises the social factors and symbolic aspects of archietecture; the study of the symbolic use of space with non-verbal communication are all aspects which are dealt with in the study of the architecture of past societies. Therefore, Archeology of Architecture offers new methodologies of analysis for new visions about built record. However, actually it is necessary a theoretical and methodological systematisation which let to carry out a definition of Archaeology of Architecture like a specific work line within Archaeology. This is the main objective of this chapter. .

[ES] En las últimas décadas la Arquitectura ha incrementado su interés hacia enfoques sobre nuevos contenidos. Muchos de estos temas eran raramente estudiados por la Arqueología tradicional. En este sentido, por ejemplo, los restos arquitectónicos sólo eran analizados partiendo de un acercamiento formalista y tipológico, pese a su importancia como reflejo material de procesos sociales. Hoy la necesidad se ha impuesto al aumento de perspectivas investigadoras, asimilando nuevas líneas que hacen posible maximizar la información que provienen de un espacio construido. Esta necesidad está justificada por cuestiones como la inconsistencia del estudio del registro arquitectónico y la superación de la investigación tradicional que incluso defiende la imposibilidad de tratar con una interpretación social e integral de este registro. A pesar de estos factores condicionantes, estudios alternativos e instrumentos analíticos fueron desarrollados recientemente en un nuevo campo de investigación, designado Arqueología Arquitectónica. Esta disciplina engloba diferentes metodologías: Análisis formal o arquitectura primitiva; el estudio de estratigrafía vertical, particularmente usada en el estudio de yacimientos medievales; el análisis funcional y simbólico que reconoce factores sociales y aspectos simbólicos de la arquitectura; el estudio del uso simbólico del espacio con una comunicación no verbal, son todos aspectos que están abordados en el estudio de la arquitectura de las sociedades pasadas. Por lo tanto, la Arqueología de la Arquitectura ofrece nuevas metodologías de análisis para nuevas visiones sobre el registro constructivo. Sin embargo, en realidad es necesaria una sistematización teórica y metodológica que permita extraer una definición de Arqueología de la Arquitectura como una línea de trabajo específica dentro de la Arqueología. Este es el principal objetivo de este capítulo.

A selection of 631 elements, recovered in stratigraphic units sealed by the roof destruction in late 4th to 5th centuries AD, were analysed. The waterlogged material studied included several types of archaeobotanical remains: timber used for construction (planks, beams, stakes, boards), wooden daily objects (combs, bowls and containers, corks, handles, spindle whorls, etc.) and macro carpological remains (seeds, fruits, pine scales and cones, etc.). In order to carry out this investigation each individual wooden remain was registered in a database developed with this aim, describing technological, taphonomical, taxonomical and dendrological data. Such array of information allowed us to discuss relevant ethnobotanical issues regarding wood selection (species and wood characteristics) according to their functional purpose (timber, objects, etc.). Furthermore, wood without any evidence of craft and carpological remains were also considered in regard of their taxonomical characteristics. They provide relevant insights about the surrounding vegetation and fruit consumption.
