The main results of experiments conducted at the Neapolitan Universities of Federico II and “L’Orientale” are presented, aimed at improving the overall quality of the learning experience by didactical innovation with an attempt at identifying and defining the main features, critical aspects and best practices for further case studies. The research on cultural heritage e-learning strategies, presented by the authors in the previous ArcheoFOSS workshops, lead inter alia to the proposal of a e-learning SCORM module for Archaeological Informatics didactics, a “MUVE” 3D model for the communication of an archaeological stratification, a whole Master Course on “Multimedia Environments for Cultural Heritage in Blended Learning”, and to the proposal and prototypal implementation of cultural heritage distributed and federated i...

The monument chosen for this research is the eighteenth century great staircase ofSS. Niccolà and Cataldo Monastery in Lecce, that was modeled by means of CAD, VRML, X3D forthcoming standard. In this way, it was possible to examine every method's advantages, evaluating the economic and intuitive use q/"WYSYG tools versus the dimension of generated files, and the possibility of expansion and of updates. A particular focus was made on underdefinition X3D standard, and on its possibilities in archaeological applications, in particular to build up 3D-DBMS, Virtual Reality scenes and Augmented-Reality applications.

Research paper thumbnail of The smart city as an evolutionary network promoting cultural commons: the Or.C.He.S.T.R.A. project and Naples antique center case study

Archeologia e Calcolatori, 2014

The theory of Cultural Commons, moreover, is invoked as a basis for the study of the advantages of sharing common resources (such as cultural heritage and the related digital information) within the Communities, identified in their inclination to innovation by means of the Evolving Networks model. In this context, the Or.C.He.S.T.R.A. project proposes a participatory and cooperative complex system of heterogeneous information on the ancient center of Naples as a case study, ranging from mobility, to health, energy, and cultural heritage, to support the smart exploitation of the tangible and intangible cultural heritage, for citi...

What remains of the funerary mausoleum of Porsenna, the legendary Etruscan king of Clusium, is on... more What remains of the funerary mausoleum of Porsenna, the legendary Etruscan king of Clusium, is only a passage in Plinius, reporting a detailed description of this impressive monument. Notwithstanding the absence of any archaeological evidence, for centuries architects, antiquarians, historians and archaeologists have attempted to draw a reasonable reconstruction of the monument, quoted as one of the wonders of past architecture. So the creation of a 3D model of the mausoleum, translating into images the literary description, appears as a perfect “laboratory” to test a number of rules, practices and tools that the authors claim to be indispensable for a correct use of virtual reality models in archaeology and a philological approach to virtual archaeology. On the contrary, they stress that the increasing use of VR for archaeological reconstruction is rarely accompanied by the necessary care for philology, reliability and in some cases even historical consistency. 1 Virtual Reality an...

It is well known that a lack of standardization is one of the most important limitations that prevent efficient interaction between different data sets. Interoperability and comparability of different archaeological data sets may increase interpretation and analysis. The paper outlines current developments in archaeological data standardization, and looks forward for an easier and more efficient process of integration of different kinds of data. The paper focuses in particular on the possibility of exploiting peer-to-peer and shared technologies to build archaeological data networks in an easy way, disseminating the standardization in a down-to-top way, avoiding technical and practical problems related to the hierarchical imposition of new formats. The paper addresses the possibility to re...

As already published by our research group, study and analysis of workflow protocols are the basis for the development of software able to support and improve archaeological data management, by introducing new methods and tools to analyze archaeological excavations (e.g. the DATARCH “Variable Transparency Image Stacker”). The progress of Web 2.0 and shared technologies makes it possible to go deeper with this research into archaeological workflow protocols and data management, exploring 3D distributed environments and the possibility of their application to archaeology in particular. The case studies selected for this research are the recent excavations carried out by Università degli Studi di Napoli Federico II in Foce Sele Hera Sanctuary and in the Cuma Forum. 2 Layers of Perception – CAA 2007 DATARCH: Project, Methodology and Development Strategies As pointed o...

The flower woman definition identifies the best known structure of the statuettes composed of a female bust supporting a flower orthogonal to the base. Actually, the scientific literature about these peculiar artifacts reveals a diffused vagueness and ambiguity in the definition, formalization, and functional exegesis, encouraging a new comprehensive study. The main results come from: digital management of the information; seriation analysis supported by a quantitative approach; visualization of occurrences in the Mediterranean Basin based on Fusion Tables; testing of multidisciplinary approaches to cooperative content building in archaeology. The study developed a whole technology-enhan...

Mapping web resources is crucial in organizing and managing cultural information in the Semantic Web and Internet of Things (IoT) perspective. In this context, the editorial board has decided to adopt geographical and chronological annotation strategies and to implement established gazetteers of geographical and historical entities. The first step in this annotation project was to experiment with the ‘Recogito’ Pelagios tool, an international initiative aimed at facilitating better associations between online resources documenting the past. Furthermore, an analysis has been undertaken by means of Social Network Analysis techniques, which in the last years has been developed to cover a wide interdisciplinary field of study, including social and behavioral sciences, economics, psych...

Tali espressioni fanno riferimento a linee di indagine che vanno assumendo una sempre maggiore specificita, pur nell’articolazione e ricchezza interna delle applicazioni. In particolare il piano di ricerca elaborato e stato finalizzato alla sperimentazione di protocolli operativi per la gestione di dati archeologici e per il controllo e miglioramento qualitativo del flusso di lavoro (workflow) della prassi archeologica. In tal senso le metodologie e le strumentazioni informatiche elaborate, testate, acquisite, messe a punto, personalizzate, sono state intese e finalizzate ad un arricchimento metodologico piuttosto che come un mero supporto strumentale. Partendo da tale cornice metodologica si e impostata una ricerca finalizzata alla elaborazione di protocolli di gestione di dati archeologici il piu possibile standardizzati, user-friendly, flessibili, efficienti, modulari, fruibili on line. Gli scavi archeologici condotti dal Dipartimento di Discipline Storiche E. Lepore dell’Universita degli Studi di Napoli hanno costituito l’oggetto principale delle sperimentazioni metodologiche affrontate. In particolare sono oggetto della ricerca le problematiche specifiche di gestione, archiviazione, interpretazione degli interventi presso i siti archeologici dell’Heraion alla Foce del Sele e di Cuma .

The museum is conceived as a museum without objects, interactive, multi-sensorial, and multi-medial. Its main issues are: i. minor sites valorization; ii. museums as territorial communication networks; iii. levels of reliability; iv. multiple interpretation. The overall intent is to give viewers evidence and argument instead of a pre- packaged explanation. This paper shows how this concept guided the whole exhibition, with the realization of different tools to present to the public the stories of the Foce Sele Hera Sanctuary and the archaeological investigation of the area in a new way.

This kind of dual relationship affects different methodological aspects and theoretical backgrounds, but, as a matter of fact, scientific research on computational methods in archaeology is more often related to the use of ICT as an educational support.
