- Abstract:
- The research project aims to uncover the unknown territory and trace its origins. It s conducted by the ISPC CNR to study the historical and archaeological context of Borbona (Rieti, Italy) with the collaboration of the Department of Agricultural Environmental and Food Sciences (University of Molise) for the geophysical prospections. Despite the limited historical and archaeological studies on Borbona, unexpected discoveries emerged during the research. Through various activities, including surveys and analysis of findings, the project has identified ancient habitation areas and significant Roman architectural fragments. The research seeks to transmit the history and culture of Borbona to future generations, fostering a sense of belonging. Protecting historical heritage and areas at archaeological risk, enhancing and promoting existing cultural assets, represent fundamental actions to increase the country s attractiveness in the present and preserve its identity in the future.
